St Marys Park 

St Mary's Park is divided by Bury New Road into the flower park and the playing field, with a total area of 6.81 hectares. 

The flower park opened in the late 1920's and still contains a number of its original horticultural features, including a layout of formal beds. This area of the park is a quiet place to sit and relax and is bordered by Prestwich Clough. It is a good place to watch wildlife, or as a starting point to head off into the clough.

The Friendship Circle

The Friendship Circle enriches the lives of children and adults with disabilities in the community through a range of fully integrated social and recreational programmes. These experiences are essential building blocks for each individual to gain skills, confidence and lead a more fulfilling lifestyle.

Together with our vast network of volunteers we encourage a culture of understanding and acceptance, helping to transform the landscape of attitudes of towards people with disabilities.
