A GROUP of volunteers are looking for recruits to help them look after a newly revamped park.
The Friends of Wharton Park need volunteers to help them maintain a newly created community garden and support the park.
The friends group was launched following the park’s £3 million restoration.
Jill Hollingworth, the group’s chair, said: “I’m so passionate about our new role. It feels fantastic after so much hard work and waiting. I speak for all of the Friends when I say it’s been an amazing journey.
“We now need more support for our community garden, the park and to give more back up to our hardworking committee. The Friends want this lovely park to thrive.”
Anyone interested can email friendsofwhartonpark@outlook.com, or write to the team at Wharton Park, Framwellgate Peth, Durham, DH1 4NQ.
