That's a tougher question than I thought, I can't see any way to contact the Neighbourhood Team directly on the council web site. I have a number of contacts who I would normally report issues to for Memorial Park but I'm not at liberty to share their email addresses here.
If it is Brabyns or Etherow Park then our Marple North Councillors will probably be able to help you @Steve Gribbon @Malcolm Allan or @BeckySenior
So I would try them in the morning. Let me know if you need further help with that.

Dear Amazon,
I'm a volunteer at most of the parks round here and I am in touch with relevant Council officers quite often. If you'd like to let me know the problem I can maybe help and make contact myself. The best way to get me is by my council mail at cllr.malcolm.allan@stockport.gov.uk but all my contacts are listed on line and you can use whatever is easiest for you.

The problem with going the Official Route is that in the past the Council have simply blocked off any area that has a problem. At any time thiis is an unsociable thing to do and then they often take months even years before the Council finally do anything about the problems.
Now in this time of Social Distancing we need to keep as many paths open as possible. I don't know who decided the Friends Groups had to close - there was a lot of ill considered decisions made at the start of the problem, but now the Government has recognised that Parks should be open, surely the work that they did could be done without infringing the Social Distancing Rules. There is also the possibility that others. such as those on furlough, could deal with some other problems such as clearing the drainage channels in Etherow Country Park before the rains turn the paths into quagmires again.
