Green Infrastructure for Growth

The Green Infrastructure for Growth (GI4G) Project will deliver a major capital investment on 35 hectares of Cornwall Council owned and managed urban green space in the towns of Camborne, Pool, Redruth, Penzance, Saltash, Hayle and Bude, increasing their wildlife value, accessibility and community enjoyment.

GI4G will help to deliver one of Cornwall Council's first major practical examples of Environmental Growth, delivering on our commitments as set out in the Cornwall Environmental Growth Strategy. Capital interventions are likely to include the delivery of recommendations to improve access by removing physical and mental barriers to use of the urban green spaces. These will be identified during the Project Design Phase using site assessments and advice from bodies such as Disability Cornwall, Age Concern and local community groups, ensuring socially inclusive access for all and contributing to the Cross Cutting Themes
