Newcastle’s parks are open for exercise only, which should be done alone or with members of your household. Gatherings of more than two people are not permitted (excluding people you live with).

To protect the health and wellbeing of park users, and those most vulnerable to the risk of infection, all playgrounds, games areas, cafes and shops, and public facilities within our parks are currently closed. Pets' Corner in Jesmond Dene is also closed to the public. 

If you are planning to visit any of Newcastle’s parks in the coming weeks, please do so safely and responsibly. Urban Green Newcastle asks all park users to follow the latest advice on social distancing and to help prevent the spread of infection by catching and disposing of coughs and sneezes with a tissue, and carrying out regular hand washing or sanitising. It’s important for all of us to be responsible and considerate of others at this very challenging time. If you display any of the symptoms of COVID-19, please stay at home and follow the official guidance from www.gov.uk.
