Join the Friends! Become Part of Saltwell Park’s Community!
The Friends of Saltwell Park are a fun, inclusive, proactive group of people who help make our park a place everyone can enjoy. We cover all ages, interests and abilities. We get involved in light gardening activities and park strolls, offer guided heritage, tree, bird, art and sculpture walks and help local school children and families interact with nature. We also organise indoor and outdoor activities and take part in initiatives run by other local community groups and Gateshead Council.
Everyone is welcome! You don’t need any skills or experience - just a willingness to get stuck in and help out. And you don’t need lots of spare time either - just come along when you can and join in with whatever takes your fancy.
If you’d like to support us but can’t get involved in our activities you can still help by joining the Friends. Please see www.friendsofsaltwellpark.co.uk/membership for details. We’ll keep you informed on what’s going on through our regular newsletters, social media posts and bulletins in the park notice boards.
Between us we make a difference to our lives, Saltwell Park and our community!
Come for an informal stroll in the park!
On Tuesday mornings, weather permitting, a casual group of us enjoy a gentle stroll around Saltwell Park. We meet at 11:00 outside the front entrance of the Towers and usually walk until about 12:00.
After the walk some of us have coffee in the restaurant in Saltwell Towers or at Prism Coffee in the Almond Pavilion on the broad walk.
If you are free on Tuesday mornings why not come along and join us?
