This month, we’re MYTH-BUSTING the claim that “new buildings are needed on Park Lands, to help Adelaide come alive - to boost the city's vibrancy.”

South Australia's first female doctor would be turning in her grave if she knew how poorly the City Council and the former State Government were managing the Park named in her honour.

After getting 3,998 signatures on a petition to “Save Helen Mayo Park” we are celebrating a victory.

Premier Steven Marshall failed to listen. He's now lost his job. His lack of vision in trying to destroy Helen Mayo Park with a stadium has disappeared as well. However, the new Labor State Government also has a number of threats to your Park Lands on its agenda.

North Adelaide residents have issued an appeal to two prominent Labor figures in a bid to save this Open Green Public space in Denise Norton Park / Pardipardinyilla (Park 2).

Few people realise that the Festival Plaza is part of the Adelaide Park Lands.
