Whether you're seeking wide-open landscapes, coastal calm or a better work-life balance, Dumfries and Galloway in Scotland offers something special, a region where quality of life comes first.
Dumfries and Galloway Council is delighted to announce the opening of the new inclusive play park in Garrie's Park in Gatehouse of Fleet – the fourth inclusive play park project launched this year – supported by the Scottish Government Play Park Renewal Fund. This milestone marks another step forward in creating accessible, welcoming spaces for children and families across our region.
Construction is now underway on nine multi-modal transport hubs in Dumfries and Galloway, which will bring new active and sustainable transport options to communities across the region.
Community groups, charities, social enterprises and public sector bodies are invited to submit Expressions of Interest for the 2026–2027 People and Place Fund, supporting projects that encourage active and sustainable travel for everyday journeys.
