Welcome to the Friends of Broadhurst Park Conmunity Group. Our aims are to preserve the green open spaces of Broadhurst Fields and protect them from further development. We want to encourage people to visit the Park and learn about its biodiversity and history.
We hold free events during the Summer months, previous events include our annual Festival, a wild flower identification workshop, bug hunting, bat and fungi walksWe also carry out conservation work in the Park; for example we have spent scores of hours tackling Himalayan Balsam (an alien invasive species) plus Litter picks and putting up bird boxes. We’ve also planted wild plants and cleared drainage channels to help feed the wetland areas in Broadhurst Clough
We always welcome new volunteers. If you would like to join us please get in touch with us through the contact form on the website.
Thanks to everyone who helped with the litterpick in March. We collected 30 bags of litter
