The five ways a beloved Swansea park is about to be enhanced after funding boost A brand-new community improvement project is to be launched to enhance the park for visitors A runner makes his way around Singleton Park (Image: Adrian White ) One of Swansea's most beloved parks is set to be enhanced after receiving a funding boost. Friends of Singleton Park has received a grant from the National Lottery community funds awards, which it will use to launch a brand-new community improvement project at Singleton Park. The project, titled Improving Singleton Park – Gwella Parc Singleton, will begin this June and aims to boost the park's facilities, biodiversity and community engagement. The group will be able to install new picnic benches, plant mature trees, introduce informative nature and park information boards and provide resources for volunteers. Sue Davies, chairwoman for Friends of Singleton Park, said: 'This funding allows us to do more than ever before to support and enhance our beloved park. Never miss a Swansea story by signing up to our newsletter here . 'Our goal is to create a welcoming, educational and tranquil space where all members of the community can come together, relax, learn about nature and get involved.' The enhancements funded by the £8,400 grant will include the following. Three picnic tables to create communal seating areas that encourage social interaction and reduce isolation. Planting of mature trees to improve biodiversity and restore areas affected by recent storms. Information boards to educate visitors about the park and local wildlife. Volunteer gear, such as hoodies and shirts, to support the growing team of local people dedicating time to park upkeep. Publicity and outreach efforts to promote activities, events, and volunteering roles through social media, schools and local groups. Article continues below The Friends of Singleton Park is a charitable incorporated organisation made up of local residents who advocate for the preservation and enhancement of Singleton Park's natural beauty and community value. It works closely with Swansea Council's parks department to deliver grassroots improvements that complement public services. The group will also host nature walks and wildlife activities, including participating in national efforts like the RSPB Annual Birdwatch, to further engage residents and increase awareness of conservation efforts. Ms Davies added: 'This project is all about community. By bringing people together through nature, we hope to build stronger local connections, improve mental wellbeing, and foster a sense of shared ownership and pride in our green spaces.' Friends of Singleton Park welcomes new volunteers and supporters.
