The garden was intended to give families and children of the neighbourhood an outdoor space to play, explore and enjoy. Now owned by The City of Edinburgh, this garden is still in use as a space for the locals today.</p><p>YOYP: West Port Garden encourages the youth to become involved in gardening and learning new skills, such as growing their own food.
