Green Flag 2023 winners Yorkshire: Full list of Yorkshire parks and green spaces that have been awarded Green Flag status including Heritage and Community awards

The Green Flag Award is a programme that highlights and rewards well maintained parks and green spaces, setting the benchmark standard for the management of recreational outdoor spaces across the country and around the world.

There are many purposes and aims for awarding parks with this prestigious accolade; these purposes are to make sure that everybody has access to quality green and other open spaces, regardless of where they live and to make sure that these spaces are appropriately managed and meet the needs of the communities that they serve.

These awards also establish standards of good management, promote and share good practice amongst the green space sector and highlight and reward the hard work of managers, staff and volunteers.
