We are supporting our local teenagers who are doing their Duke of Edinburgh, they are volunteering within our club.

Friends of Woolston Park are also a non-profit organisation who began as a small group of volunteers who assisted the Rangers with their work in the park. When the Ranger service was withdrawn, the volunteers formed a community association group. They maintain the park through regular litter pick to keep in pleasant and safe for all. They engage with local residents and park users which has created a lovely community spirit.

The young friends meet regularly for nature inspired activities, which develops their knowledge while having fun, some activities are making bird boxes, bug hotels and bird watching. They also help around the park to support the wildlife in the park.

We are all volunteers working together as a team to continue to bring the community together.
