HARLOW Council has today received the Green Flags for both Parndon Wood Nature Reserve and the Town Park.

Today the Council celebrated the hard work and dedication of its brilliant teams of volunteers that have made this fantastic achievement possible at a special event for them.

The Green Flag Awards are a mark that shows the quality of a park or green space, and the Council is proud to say that both Parndon Wood and the Town Park can yet again be counted among the world’s best open spaces.

Thank you to the volunteers for all their efforts.
