Your chance to help
We welcome anyone who would like to join our efforts. Membership is free and you can do as little or as much as you would like to help the group continue to preserve and improve the beautiful Victorian park that is Heaton Moor Park, established 1987.
Because of cuts, the council only provides a ‘cut and clear service’ to parks. Joining us on a work day, helping with an event or a project, or making a one-off or regular donation, you can help protect this lovely neighbourhood green space for now and for future generations.
