Returning to meetings!

Friends of the Narrows Community Park

Since 2019, a group of volunteers have been working in the Narrows Community Park in Hoole to develop a number of meadows and planted areas with the support of the Council - this has been much appreciated by local residents and the park has won several awards (King and Queen Consort Coronation Biodiversity Competition - CWAC - 1st Prize (2023), RHS Its your Neighbourhood Outstanding - Level 5 Award (2023) and Cheshire West Design Awards, Commended - Public Realm (2025)).
The local community have really responded positively to the changes in the park over the past 6 years; people now stop and spend time looking at the various meadows on the park, rather than simply walking through.
After 18 long months, our Club is finally scheduled to return to actual meetings on 6 September. Our previous meeting location now being unavailable, we will gather at The Mill Hotel in Chester. A premier location in the heart of the City, The Mill admirably fulfils our requirements(food, drink, car parking and privacy) and we look forward to many happy meetings there. We plan to meet, as we did before the pandemic, twice monthly – every other Monday lunchtime and a different location where there is a fifth Monday in the month. We normally have a speaker – we have been royally entertained in the past by the Lord High Sherriff, the University Vice Chancellor and a talk about castles from one of our members! We are an informal club fulfilling the Rotary goal of fun, fellowship and friendship. We always welcome new members, so please contact us if you want to join our club.
