We are delighted to share a new article by writer Sara Jaspan, which takes a journey through the radical history of one of the first public parks in the UK – Peel Park – via a new commission by artist and UOS alumni Lizzie King for Rediscovering Salford. The city-wide cultural programme will highlight and celebrate Salford’s green spaces and unique history throughout 2021.
