Red Deer Village: Community Support in Action

Red Deer Village - Parks Make Places

At Red Deer Village, giving back is part of everyday life. From hosting cosy Macmillan coffee afternoons that raise funds for vital cancer support, to offering free breaks for unpaid carers through the Respitality programme, the park is always finding ways to care for those around it.

They employ local teams, recommend nearby shops and even runs a courtesy shuttle bus for resident outings – the park actively fuels the local economy. But it’s the people who make it special. A thriving Community Hub and resident-led events create a close-knit, supportive atmosphere where friendships flourish and funds are raised for local charities. On Parks Make Places Day, the park welcomed MP Katrina Murray and local charity Cardowan Community Meadow, showcasing its commitment to community, sustainability, and resident voices.

It’s a place where community spirit is more than words—it’s something lived and shared.

This is part of the #ParksMakePlaces campaign, celebrating how holiday parks support people, places and the planet.
