Heywood & Hopwood November 2019

Help support
your local park
This year the “Friends of Queen’s Park”
have organised a calendar using
photographs kindly donated by local
photographer, David England.
All the amazing pictures within the
calendar have been taken within the
Queens Park and it is amazing to see
what wonderful wildlife is thriving within
our local park.
The calendars are £5.00 each, and
all money raised will be used to fund
future events within the park.
They are currently available from Queen’s
Park Café and Bamford Print, Cowburn
Street, Heywood. Orders can also be made
by requesting a copy on the “Friends of
Queen’s Park” Face book page or by
ringing 0749 632 0836.
If you would like to become involved
with helping your local park to remain an
interesting, attractive and safe place to
visit all year round then please contact the
Friends of Queens Park Group through the
Facebook page or contact Andy on
07496 320836. They do some fantastic work
throughout the year including organising
litter picks in the local area, celebrating the
park through “Heywood in Bloom”, assisting
with Heywood Charities Fete, arranging
regular traditional Punch and Judy shows
and Dogs Trust and R.S.P.B events. To
celebrate the visit of Dippy the dinosaur in
Rochdale 2020, a bog garden was created
in the old paddling pool near the lake.
They hold meetings in the Park Lodge on the
3rd Thursday of every month and everyone is welcome.
