Street Collection 7-8 December

Three of our intrepid (warmly wrapped!) collectors about to set out with their buckets for our street collection - which took place in the centre of Knutsford on Friday 7th and Saturday 8th December.

We are most grateful to all those who contributed to our street collection this year, which raised an amazing £1513.

Steam Engine at Tatton Park Farm

A while a ago we helped to finance some refurbishment work that was needed to get an old steam engine operational at the Farm in Tatton Park.  On Monday 3 December several members were given a demonstration of it running by Engineer Fred.  Unfortunately steam power has had to be replaced by a more modern alternative power source, but outwardly it operates the same way!

Reindeer Parade Friday 30 November

On the night of the Christmas lights switch on in Knutsford we provided a group of marshalls to help Knutsford Town Council with their reindeer parade along King Street and up to Canute Square.   Father Christmas was pulled along in his sleigh with the help of a group of scottish reindeer.

Big Dig Sunday 25th November

On a bright but cold Sunday morning two of our members helped Knutsford in Bloom with their RHS 'Big Dig' in an area adjacent to the Knutsford Railway Station car park.     The success of our efforts will hopepfully be revealed next spring!     Bulb planting amongst the old tree roots was a bit of a nightmare!
