People hold Bradgate Park close to their hearts throughout their lives, help us protect this and Swithland Wood for everyone to enjoy.When established, the running costs of the Trust were met by both Leicester City Council and Leicestershire County Council. Nowadays the budget for maintaining the Estate is approximately £1.2 million a year and the Charity has to raise over 95% of this itself through events, grants, donations, pay and display parking, sales of Estate products and at our Tearooms and shop.
Your future support could help the Trust achieve remarkable things. We know we have accomplished much, but there is still so much to uncover and share for visitor’s enjoyment in the future.
Bradgate Park is a special place to many people. I’m raising funds so the Trust can continue its conservation work and protect the Park for future generations.
On sunday 26th April, members of our club will be taking on various challenges to help raise money for our local park.
I am fundraising because Bradgate is near and dear to my heart and I want future generations to get to experience it and reverently appreciate its history.
