We’re delighted Astbury Mere Country Park has been selected to take part in the Co-op Local Community Fund, all CO-OP members need to do is select Astbury Mere as the cause they would like to support!

Money raised through Co-op Membership can be generated anywhere in the UK, as long as a Member is buying selected products or services from the Co-op Group.

We would like to provide up to five educational signs to help engage the visitors with the country park so that they learn about the environment around them and help to protect it.
How this cause brings people in the community together
There would be a group of diverse community volunteers who would participate in the design of the signs. This would include butterfly and bird experts, local primary and secondary school children, a range of park visitors, including some with special educational needs, and a co-ordinator. The impact of the signs would be measured by visitors’ experience and satisfaction surveys.
Astbury Mere Trust is one of three causes in the community which Co-op Members can select to support between now and 23 October 2021.
Happy shopping and thanks for your support!
Astbury Mere Trust Team.
