Meols Park News...

Welcome to our Website friendsofmeolspark.co.uk

Over the years we had watched the decline of our park. Meols park is enjoyed by locals and visitors coming to visit on a daily basis whether its bringing children and grandchildren on their way home from neighbouring schools to play on the swings, or to sit and chat with friends and neighbours.

Then in July 2007, the Play Area was stripped of its slide and climbing frame on the grounds of health and safety issues. The rumour then was that the Swings were the next to go as they were in disrepair
This prompted us to take action and we organised a public meeting at St Andrews Church Hall with the Principal Officer of Wirral Parks and Countryside
on 6th October 2007. It was confirmed then that the decline of our park was ongoing and the council did not have the funds to invest in play areas such as ours. A small group of us along with local resident and business woman and now our MP Esther McVey   then decided to form a local community group, namely "The Friends of Meols Park".cont..
