It’s great to see the Friend’s going from strength to strength. Full story from the Friends can be found on their blog see: http://www.sandallpark.org.uk/2011/06/friends-receive-queens-award

The launch event for Friends of Sandall Park went off with a bang! over 300 runners were taking part in a race as part of the event and local TV star, Carolyn Hodgson, officially launched the Community Spaces funded project.

More pictures and a full account of the day can be found here.

Well done to the Friends of Sandall Park for successfully completing and launching their project. We’d also like to congratulate the group on keeping people so well informed about developments in the park via their website.

The groups website is constantly updated with latest information – enabling local people, funders and sponsors to stay up to date with activities and see the difference being made locally! More from the Friends of Sandall Park can be found at: www.sandallpark.org.uk
