PAPA's Park

05/09/2026

On the 30th of August Papa’s celebrated 30 years of Papa’s park!

Big thanks to Papa’s Cafe for hosting a brilliant day and providing 30 free meals for 30 young people!

Thanks to Co-op for their community award!

Here’s to the next 30 years of Papa’s park!

Papa’s park is a special place - run by and for the community, somewhere everyone can come and feel welcomed and enjoy some time outdoors.

Now we’re starting our own football club! It will be a weekly thing - Fridays 5-6 for kids of all genders, aged 8-13. The event will be coached by volunteers (who are doing their Football Association training as we speak!).

And most importantly we want to make it free. Please have a look down the back of the sofa, in your old jacket pockets, that random jar in the back of the cupboard. It all counts!

Papa’s is a community cause this year! The more supporters we get the more money they give us! If you’re a co-op member you just need to log on and click “choose cause”.

Do you love Papa’s Park? Do you love social media and campaigning? We need a new volunteer!

We need someone to help Papa’s park raise its profile. We have so many stories to tell (bolt cutters, butterflies, best friends). But we need help!

NOTE - this is an *unpaid* position. We can cover modest expenses if needed (we want to remove barriers to getting involved).
