You are welcome to become a member just to hear more about what we have done, there is no obligation to take part in any of the activities. However, if you have an hour or two to spare and would like to become involved in the friend's activities, or if you have a skill you feel would enhance the friend’s range of activities, we'd love to have you on board.

Although our work relies on members who are passionate about seeing the park thrive, you can support us by making an individual contribution if you wish. All the money we collect goes directly back into the work and activities that support conservation of the park. We are not employees of the council, however we do partner with and support the work they do.
Sunday Gardening Sessions
For all those who enjoy gardening and would like to maintain the flower beds in Woodthorpe Park’s gardens (keeping them free from weeds etc) why not come along and be part of the team?
The group meet every Sunday morning outside the Grange at 10am and do various gardening tasks for approximately 2 hours, however whatever time/effort you can spare would be appreciated.
You can also support the park by purchasing from the on-site plant shop, they sell surplus stock from their nursery at affordable prices. You can expect seasonal favourites, as well as trees, shrubs and flowers.
Plus, as a FoWGP member you'd get 10% off a wide range of plants and accessories.
