🌳💚 KNIGHTS GRANGE NEEDS YOU – COME TO OUR LAUNCH SATURDAY 18TH JULY 2pm onwards💚🌳
A new community group, Knights Grange Friends, has been established with one simple goal – to protect, promote and celebrate Knights Grange for generations to come.
We are now inviting Winsford residents, users of the park and anyone who cares about this special green space to attend its official launch event on Friday 18th July at New Images Youth & Community Centre, starting at 2pm.
Knights Grange Friends has been officially incorporated with the backing of the Council (CWAC) to encourage the wider community to increase the use of Knights Grange with all its open spaces and walks beyond just sport. e.g. for walking, as a place to picnic, get fit, or meet up, and for community events to make it come alive.
We have three key themes and are looking for Volunteers with ideas to champion:
*Community Events - to establish Knights Grange as a hub for all to host events bringing us all once more, closer together.
*Health & Wellbeing - to support activities which will promote community health and wellbeing; and also provide opportunities for meeting people.
*Nature & Environment - to provide opportunities to explore, develop and protect the varied environment at the entire Knights Grange parkland area.
This is your opportunity to find out more about the group, ask questions, share your ideas and discover how you can get involved in shaping the future of Knights Grange.
The group will also be hosting a Community Walk & Talk event around Knights Grange on Sunday 26th July at 2pm, giving local people the chance to meet up, explore the site, discuss opportunities and identify ways to make the area even better.
Tim Ashcroft, Chair of Knights Grange Friends, said:
"We want Knights Grange to be a place that the whole community can be proud of. This group is about bringing people together, listening to local voices and ensuring that this incredible asset reaches its full potential."
He added:
"The future of Knights Grange shouldn't be decided by a handful of people. We want residents, families, walkers, nature lovers and anyone with an interest in the area to come along, share their views and help shape what comes next."
Whether you have an hour to spare, a great idea to share or simply want to learn more, we'd love to meet you.
