Join us at our regular gardening session from 1.30pm on the last Saturday of the month to hear about our forthcoming community sculpture project.

Join us every last Saturday of the month at 1330. Meet by the tennis courts/willow tree

Lots of good news to share – including funding for a new wildflower meadow, a new pedestrian gate opposite Chestnuts School and a meeting in March to explore daylighting the Stonebridge Brook which runs under the park

Join us this Saturday 27 Jan from 1.30 – 4:00pm.

Special day:  join Angie Baker & learn all about willow planting and weaving.

Gloves, tools and hot drinks provided.

All welcome. Come and hear about our activities since our last AGM in Feb 2017 and help us shape our priorities for campaigning and activities in the coming year.

After the meeting at 3pm we’ll plant some wild Spring bulbs. Tools provided. All ages welcome.

Lots of pics of our recent festival are available on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Friends.of.Chestnuts.Park/

Join us outside Chestnuts Cafe at 3pm on Sat 9 September for a walk round the whole park, to note what’s working well and what needs attention or improvement. This will help us prioritise our next ten year plan, now we’ve completed the willow garden and all the major items in our previous plans. All welcome

On 15 July we’ll be focussing on activities in the  Willow Garden, Orchard and unwrapping the new benches from 11am -12.45pm only, so make sure you arrive in time!
