High Sheriff Award presented to the Friends of Anderton and Marbury

I was delighted to visit Marbury Country Park to open a Photographic Exhibition and to present the Friends of Anderton and Marbury with a special High Sheriff’s Award for outstanding community service. It was wonderful to meet their chair Alan Redley and all the exceptional volunteers and supporters.

For more than a quarter of a century, its members have been caring for Northwich Woodlands, helping ensure everyone has access to a well-maintained network of pathways and countryside around Marbury Country Park, Anderton woods and the local flashes.

They’ve initiated dozens of exciting projects and developments to improve public engagement and enjoyment, from photo competitions and guided walks to installing special viewing platforms, play areas, bird guides and local history panels.

Leaders bring an impressive range of skills, coupled with dedication and commitment, ensuring this is an incredibly effective and well-managed group, delivering a fantastic public service. 

A massive thank you and many congratulations!
