Friends of Knowle Park :
FoKP is a local group set up at the end of 2003 by residents of the Knowle village community in the West Midlands.
Local residents believed a new community group was required to provide a focal point & to increase awareness / activities in support of the local Park - a very significant local amenity used by & effecting thousands of local residents & potentially threatened by adverse development plans at the time.
FoKP has charitable status (Charity Commission Registration No. 1123544).
Our major fund-raising activity for
the park is the annual Knowle Park Festival - which we have run since 2004.
(SMBC organised Festivals before 2004).
So far we have raised more than £41,000 for improvements to the Park.
Friends of Knowle Park Objectives :
To promote the protection and conservation of the area known as Knowle Park, also known as Job’s Close Park.
To promote the preservation of the open & rural aspect of the park for future generations of local residents / park users.
Please join FoKP & help us represent Park users views. See "Membership" via link on left hand side for more reasons to join & how to join. You can give us as little or as much of your time as you like !
