Welcome to the Friends of Castle Green in Hereford.

We are an active community group committed to respecting the heritage of Castle Green, making more use of the park for the today's community and improving and protecting it for future generations.

The Annual General Meeting, held on Thursday 15th July, 2010 was a great success in spite of the heavy rain and wind. David Whitehead gave an interesting and amusing talk on the history of the Training Centre on Castle Green followed by the formal meeting. Topics covered included the Riverbank Project, the Summer Fair, the future of the Training Centre and, most importantly, the planned consultation with the membership to put together a strategy for the Friends of Castle Green over the next five and ten years.

The garden BBQ took place as planned and stalwart members enjoyed their hamburgers, sausages and salads in close proximity under the gazebos, fostering the community spirit.

Our next event is the Christmas Fair on Sunday, 28th November, 2010. Put the date in your diary now - it is the perfect event at which to source Christmas presents and stocking fillers, not to mention more music, mulled wine and a fun day for all

Full minutes of the AGM will be available shortly.
