The Friends of Worthington Park will be holding their 2021 Annual General Meeting at 7pm on Thursday 18 November at Sale Sports Club on Clarendon Crescent, Sale. Unfortunately accommodation at the Club is very limited but we hope to be able to stream the proceedings online via Google View. If you are interested in joining in online, please email barry@broth.org.uk and you will be sent the appropriate link once it is available.

The Friends have been busy this weekend beginning to clear soil around the bases of the lions in preparation for some restoration work. Local sculptor and stone carver, Nick Roberson, will be cleaning them, grinding and smoothing the bases, sorting out the paintwork and adding some bronze coloured highlights.

Absolutely delighted to be able to be posting that Sale Central Guiding have organised an Easter Trail in the park. It’s socially distanced and will run from 31st March over the Easter holidays. There’s a trail to follow with lots of Easter facts and some activities. Thank you so much for doing this Sale Guides – we really appreciate this and know it will be enjoyed by many.

Several members of the Friends Group attended the online training in asthma awareness organised by Heather Henry from BreathChamps CIC.
The Friends of Worthington Park have now been accredited as a child asthma friendly organisation.

The Park is visited by many birds, One of our young visitors to the Park, Daisy (12), has produced this helpful poster advising how to feed the birds.
