Friends of King's Park

Charity No: SC039324

Re-established mid 2019, Friends of King's Park are a community group focused on the upkeep and improvement of King's Park in Glasgow. At the heart of the organisation sits a committee of volunteers who meet monthly to progress improvements to the park. A wider group of volunteers have contributed to the improvements within Kings Park. 

Whatever time you have, however you'd like to be involved, we'd love you to join us!

To date the group have been responsible for a number of improvements and activities within King's Park: 

 

14 cherry trees were planted along the driveway to Aikenhead House, replacing some of the beautiful trees that were lost in the drainage works.

Following loads of effort from the FOKP volenteers and a generous donation of equipment from Worldwide Tropicals, the pond pumps are back up and running.
