Wakefield District is situated at the heart of Yorkshire and offers a unique landscape and a wealth of open spaces. 

We provide and manage parks, country parks, nature reserves, commons, woodlands as well as other smaller wildlife areas. We maintain biodiversity through environmental conservation, providing habitat for wildlife.

These green spaces offer an opportunity for everyone to enjoy nature in their local area.
