While the Heritage Lottery grant is paying for many of the developments within the park, maintaining the park is a big commitment
which the Community Trust has to pay for.
The Trust is very lucky in the support that the local community gives to the park both in their volunteer time and financially. There are a
number of ways that you can support the development and maintenance of Warley Woods financially

Membership

You can join the Warley Woods Community Trust. It costs between £3 and £12 a year.
For this you will receive quarterly issues of the Trust’s newsletter and you will have the opportunity to have a say in how the park is
managed and developed.

Sponsor a Tree

You may not realise it, but over 1,500 trees in Warley Woods have their own unique number.
This means that you can chose to sponsor most of the trees in the park. It could be your favourite one or which holds special memories
for you. You can sponsor a tree for yourself or as a gift for someone else and know that your donation will help preserve this special
place for yourself, your family and generations in the future. Annual sponsorship of a tree is £20. For this, you will receive a certificate
which acknowledges your donation and which shows the location of the tree and a photograph of the tree in its setting. We will also send you a copy of our quarterly newsletter.

Rita Clarkson - Cambridge

David Haynes - Devon

Mr & Mrs Marsh - Halesowen

Naomi Richmond - West Midlands

Dedicate a Bench

We have recently put a number of benches into the park. Dedicating a bench can give you the opportunity to create a long lasting mark of special occasion, such as a wedding or birth of a new family member. All of these benches can be dedicated for £500.
We will put a plaque onto the bench and will ensure it is maintained and repaired.
We may have to move benches at some point in the future and we would let you know if this was due to happen. Your donation would ensure a bench was dedicated for a minimum of 25 years.
