Cooper Park Masterplan
The Elgin Neighbourhood Board, working in partnership with Moray Council, commissioned MBLA Design Ltd to prepare a Masterplan for Cooper Park. This plan will provide a strategic framework to guide future development and transformation whilst ensuring that the character of the park is preserved.
In October 2023, Elgin was awarded £20m over 10 years from the UK Government to support local priorities, managed by the community-led Elgin Neighbourhood Board. Following two rounds of engagement, the Board identified potential park improvements including a pump track, multi-use games area, fully accessible and inclusive play space, upgraded or new pavilion.
Additional investment is planned through the Levelling Up fund to refurbish the Cooper Park pond and repurpose the existing toilet provision to create a new cafe, toilets and changing places facility. Grant Lodge will also be restored through the Moray Growth Deal.
The Masterplan aims to co-ordinate all current and future activities to ensure a cohesive shared vision for Cooper Park.

Take Survey
Cooper Park Community Sports Hub is a registered charity that brings together many of the different sports clubs and organisations that use Cooper Park for recreation. Due to the poor state of repair of the pavilion, the hub has managed to secure funding with the Elgin Neighbourhood Board to go towards 3 potential design options ranging in cost from £600k to £1.4m for the pavilion. We are now at the stage of asking the community their opinions on these designs.
Before completing this survey, please read the 'Pavilion Design Options' document, and/or review the below summarised table.
