This website has been created to publicise the Minutes of Members' Meetings, together with details of how and on what the remaining funds are being expended. Details of how the money is being spent may also be found on our Facebook page.
At a Special General Meeting of the Members on 30 January 2019, the Members agreed to disband the Charity for the reasons given in the Agenda and Minutes (see Minutes & Agendas page). All remaining funds, less any relevant expenditure, are to be used to the benefit of the garden. Once all funds have been disbursed, the Charity will be closed. The final funds were transferred to Grappenhall and Thelwall Parish Council on 30 October 2023.
The Friends was formally deregistered from the Charity Register on 14 February 2024
As well as publicising details of how we spent the remaining funds for the benefit of the garden (see Purchases for the Garden), we are showing photos of some of the events we held to raise the visibility of the garden to the local population and the wider area (see Events Photos). These events also became a means of raising funds which were to be spent in the garden and its buildings.
For information on the history of the Friends and the cafe, visit our History page. The page now also includes a document on why two of the glasshouses are named. We have also added a booklet of the Warrington Organic and Wildlife Gardening Society who cultivated in the kitchen garden before the transfer to the Parish Council.
