APPEAL FOR HELP TO MAINTAIN WYTHALL PARK THROUGH THE COVID-19 CRISIS
We rely on the support of our members, local residents, clubs and hirers who use the facilities of Wythall House, Park Hall and the Park for meetings, activities, events and socialising.
The Association is very grateful to organisations who support our organisation by regularly making donations, taking advertising for our events and newsletter, sponsorship, and supporting events.
Special thanks to those of you who are members of the Community Club, the area within Wythall House which has a Club License, enabling us to socialise with the drink of our choice, whilst contributing to the funds.
During 2019 we received the following support:
Donation from the estate of a well-wisher | £100 |
8 x Donations from individuals | £405 |
Redhill Archers | £1000 |
Wythall Bowls Club | £400 |
Pearl WI | £50 |
Wythall GSD Training Club Dog Show | £502 |
Wythall Tennis Club | £1312 |
Charities Aid Foundation | £300 |
Fright Nights Worcestershire Event | £165 |

WED Charitable Trust | £1000 |
Wythall Parish Council 2019-20 | £6000 |
Donations when the playground and toilets were vandalised | £467 |
Events get regularly supported by
Phoenix Group that contributes towards First Aid costs
Advertisers – including Becketts Farm; Baker Ward; Hodges & Lawrence;

However:
Due to Covid 19 the facilities are CLOSED.
Local residents may walk around the 37 acres, as long as everyone keeps their distance.
BUT that leaves us with NO INCOME;
We don’t qualify for the help offered by the Government (£25,000 grant) to businesses through the Council Rates as our rateable value is £1 above the limit.
whilst overheads such as insurance, utilities, maintenance contracts, still continue
and the employees are “furloughed”
You can help by becoming an ASSOCIATE MEMBER, only £10 per year to belong or become a COMMUNITY CLUB MEMBER only £20 per year.

If you would be prepared to offer a LOAN to help pay wages until the Government repays us please contact me.
