The Wicksteed Charitable Trust: Join Us in Securing Our Future

Wicksteed Park has been a cornerstone of family fun, community events, and natural beauty for over 100 years. As the birthplace of modern play equipment, it holds a unique place in history—and in the hearts of generations.

However, the park’s future as a free to access site is at risk. The Wicksteed Charitable Trust needs your help to keep the park open, free, and thriving.

Thanks to a generous grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, the “Love Wicksteed” campaign has been launched to secure vital funding. Your input and support can make a real difference:

Let’s work together to ensure that Wicksteed Park remains a free, green space for families, nature lovers, and future generations.
