On Saturday 23rd August, we held our Orangefield Park Celebrations in the Park. This was to celebrate the recent regeneration of the park and to encourage use of the greenway. We had such a great turnout and are so pleased that everyone enjoyed themselves.
Also huge thanks to all groups/organisations who joined us including Grant Goldie (Juggler), Cal the juggler, Babcock and Bobbins, Bloomfield Wildlife Watch, The Wish Project by Creative Exchange, Ross Maguire and Chidam Baram Samba Band for providing live music, Bloomfield Football Club, Podium 4 Sport and of course not forgetting Belfast City Council Parks and Leisure team!
On Saturday, 28th June we joined local community groups and organisations for a cleanup/family fun day at the Hollow at Elmgrove!

Plans include landscaping, new/improved cycle/walkway, river channel improvements and also conservation of the Conn O'Neill Bridge. You can view all the plans in the explore the greenway section of the CCG website.
