Community access

One of the best things about this park is that it can be accessed by everyone. There is a car park for those who drive and the local public transport, such as buses, have routes that pass right by the park as well. The park has wheelchair access for the inclusion of everyone within the community, along with smooth paths to make exploring the park easier and more enjoyable for everyone.

How we can conserve the park

One thing that everyone can do to help conserve the amazing green space that is Stanley Park is simply not littering. Any litter that is dropped inside the park easily makes its way into one of the pond and can have horrible affects on the wildlife. If this simple rule is followed we will be able to enjoy the park for many years and generations to come.
