Aberdeen Greenspace Trust Limited - Name Change
From the 1st July 2008, Aberdeen Countryside Project was renamed as Aberdeen Greenspace Trust Limited.
Why have we changed our name?
Aberdeen Countryside Project was established in 1997 and the name has served us well over the years. However the term countryside in our title implied that we only worked in the outskirts of the city and not within the built up areas. New terminology has developed over the years with greenspace becoming the accepted term for open space within urban areas. We believe that the new name better describes the work that we do and will allow us to promote the work that we do in a more clear and coherent fashion. The term greenspace is used widely and is understood by our partners, statutory bodies and the public.
Overall we hope it will enable us to raise our profile and help us to promote Aberdeen Greenspace and the work that we carry out.
