Riverside Nature Park Opening

Later this morning, the Riverside Nature Park was officially opened and there was a large turnout of local people  at the event.   

Having long campaigned to see the nature park area opened to the public given its superb views across the Tay Estuary and its rich natural heritage, it was a real pleasure to attend today.   Alan Young, immediate past Chair of West End Community Council, undertook the official opening and it was good to see Albert A'Hara's contribution recognised - no-one has campaigned harder than Albert over the years to see the area opened to the public.

Here's some photos from the event, together with a short video of Alan's official opening speech:
