Introducing our Giving Stars

Today we are launching our Giving Stars appeal – a way for our visitors to make a donation to the work of Nene Park Trust and decorate a wooden star to be hung in front of the Ferry Meadows Visitor Centre, for all our Park visitors to enjoy over the festive season.

This year, look out for our stars cascading from the trees on the grass island near the Visitor Centre, adding a unique bit of festive colour and sparkle to our Park.

To take part, just pop into the Visitor Centre, make a donation of your choice and either decorate a star there and then with our range of coloured pens or take one home to decorate and bring it back another time to go on display. If you are part of a school, care home or community group and would like to decorate a number of stars, please get in touch with fundraising@neneparktrust.org.uk and we will arrange this for you.

We have already received donations and decorated stars from Thorpe Wood and The Maltings Care Homes and Compare the Market to kick start our festive display. Thank you so much to everyone who has taken part and decorated a star so far. We hope you can come into the Park and spot your stars on display!

The Giving Stars donations we receive go towards supporting the ongoing upkeep of our green spaces, protecting our wildlife and putting on wonderful activities in the Park for all communities to enjoy.
