***CUSTOMER NOTICE - COVID-19***
Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council parks are open from 0900-2100 hrs daily (note there are several exceptions which are locally notified at the gates). Those with adjoining car parks have also re-opened. Where possible the parks will operate a one-way system that everyone should adhere to.
Public toilets are available at Wallace Park, Moira Demesne, Hillsborough and in Castle Gardens.
We all want to enjoy the outdoors with our families and friends. So alongside Government protocols and public health guidelines, here are some tips to help us all to make decisions using our own sound judgement, continue to be considerate to others and not put stresses on the NHS and other Emergency Services, so we can all:
