THE University of Bradford's grounds have been ranked among the best parks and green spaces in the country, after being awarded a prestigious green flag award.
A flag representing the University's achievement has been placed next to its Horton A building as a result.
Richard Hirst, Buildings Operation Manager at the University, said: “We are very proud to receive this external recognition of the quality of our grounds.
"The main campus is an asset to the city of Bradford and is valued by local people, as well as our students and staff."
The University of Bradford was first awarded the Green Flag in 2015/2016 and has retained it ever since.
Green Flag Award Scheme Manager Paul Todd said: “I would like to congratulate everyone involved in making the University of Bradford worthy of a Green Flag Award.
“To meet the requirements demanded by the scheme is testament to the hard work of the staff and volunteers who do so much to ensure that the University of Bradford has high standards of horticulture, safety and environmental management and is a place that supports people to live healthy lives.”
