The Trust and The Parks Trust model
The Parks Trust is the independent charity that cares for many of the city’s parks and green spaces. This adds up to 4,500 acres of river valleys, woodlands, lakesides, parks and landscaped areas alongside the main roads – about 20 percent of the new city area.The Trust was set up when Milton Keynes Development Corporation completed its work to ensure that these unique assets were managed and protected for ever. Along with a 999-year lease on the parks, the Trust was endowed with commercial properties and other assets which generate income to finance the work. The Trust is not funded through council tax or business rates.
