Community Spaces bid
Mar 6, 2009
On February the 28th the Friends submitted their biggest funding application yet. Under the heading of Community Spaces a bid for £49,950 was presented to Groundwork Trust to secure funding to up grade the performance space in Lowndes Park. The bid is a stage 1 application and if we are successful there will be more form filling in order to submit a stage 2 application. We have 8 weeks to wait to find out if we have passed stage 1.
News & Events
The Friends are moving the weekend working party to the second Sunday of the month and the next one will be on Sunday 12 February. We hope to be pruning roses, weeding the beds and then take a look to see if the snowdrops we have planted over the last few years are coming through. We meet at 10am in the Archena Garden which is next to the Temperance Hall in Church Street.
The Friends are hoping to plant around 30 native tree saplings in the Wildlife Area at their working party on Sunday 8 January. They have been donated by the 10th Chesham Guides and were given to them by the Woodland Trust. The varieties of tree include Holly, Wild Rose, Hawthron, Hazel and Dogwood.
We would like to thank Helena Mills who raised £570 for the Friends of Lowndes Park in memory of her good friend Ben Cargill. Over the course of the last summer she took part in not one but three triathlons. Please click on the title for more details and picture.
