FRIENDS OF
CALDY NATURE PARK
Subscribe for £5 a year to help look after this great space for nature
The Friends of Caldy Nature Park was formed in 1991 when Cheshire West and Chester Council took over responsibility for the area. To support the Friends' efforts please come and join them; the annual subscription is £5 per household per year. As a Member you can stand for election to the committee and help shape how we support the park. Your subscription money enables us to operate:
-
to buy the insurance we need for the working parties,
-
to pay the hosting fees for the website,
-
to purchase tools and materials for projects to improve the park.
​​Subscriptions are renewed annually in January but you may join at any time by entering your name and email address above.​​​
Working Parties
The Friends meet at the car park on Caldy Valley Road
from 09:30 to 12:30
on the first Wednesday of every month
all year round.
(Except if it falls on New Year's Day, when we usually meet the following Wednesday.)
​Everyone is welcome at the Working Parties; you don't have to be a Member or paid up.
The council's Green Space Officer leads us on important maintenance and development work.
We provide the tools, you just need to come suitably dressed to muck in!
The group plays an active role in the development and maintenance of the Park and provides a link between the Cheshire West & Chester Council, the Great Boughton and Huntington Parish Councils, and the local community.
​​​
The Friends seek to keep a balance between the needs of local people and the wildlife in the Park. Their aims are:
-
To work at all times with officials appointed by Cheshire West & Chester Council (CWAC) to improve the recreational and natural assets of the area adopted by CWAC as Caldy Nature Park.
-
To consult with the Great Boughton and Huntington Parish Councils and the general public about plans to develop and manage the park.
-
To keep local people informed about developments in the Caldy Nature Park and to encourage them to become involved.
-
To seek funding from all appropriate sources to enable the group to pursue the above aims.
​​​​
The Friends of Caldy Nature Park look forward to welcoming you!
