The Friends of
Prince of Wales Park
Home
Welcome from the Friends the Price of Wales Park. We are a registered charity, number 1168581, established in 2012. The aim of the Friends is to support the maintenance and improvement of the park for the local community.
The Park was established on the 10th March 1863. This was also the day that Albert Edward, the Prince of Wales, married Princess Alexandra of Denmark, hence the name. The Park is listed as a site of Historic Interest (Grade II). It had also been recognised as a Designated Wildlife Site and Local Nature Reserve.
Whilst owned by BMDC, much of the maintenance of the park is undertaken by a team of volunteers, the “Friends”. More information about our activities can be found on the Get Involved pages.
Bedsides maintenance, the Friends organise several events throughout the year. These include schools visits, educational tours and themed trails for children at Easter, Halloween and Christmas.
Funding
As with all charities we rely on grants and donations for our funding. We are grateful for the support of our sponsors and the local community. If you would like to help with our funding efforts, please go to our Get Involved pages for further details.
