Published

8th September 2026

Local residents are being invited to help shape the future of a new play area at Camperdown Country Park by attending a public engagement event this weekend.

The event will take place on Saturday 12 September, from 10.00am to 2.00pm, at the Camperdown Wildlife Centre Learning Centre. Members of the public will have the opportunity to view draft proposals for the future play area, meet with project representatives, and provide feedback on the proposed designs.

The engagement session forms part of the ongoing development process, ensuring that community views help inform the final plans. Visitors will be able to explore the proposed concepts, ask questions, and share their thoughts on the features and facilities they would like to see included.

Organisers are encouraging residents, families and park users to attend and play an active role in shaping a play area that meets the needs of the local community.

Anyone interested in the future of the play area is welcome to drop in at any time during the event.

Dundee City Council

Dundee draws skilled workers from a 60-minute catchment population of 640,000 and has a local population of over 140,000. The availability of a large pool of highly skilled labour is a key feature in the Dundee economy. Flexibility in the labour force is currently more prevalent in Dundee than in Scotland as a whole. All forms of labour market flexibility - part-time, temporary employment, self-employment and shift work - are widely operational within the city. Labour force stability in the city is excellent, enabling companies to plan with confidence. Labour turnover levels are less than 5% and absenteeism averages 2%.
