The recent news, however, from Warley Woods that five of the park’s memorial benches have been destroyed, four had been set on fire and one smashed, has saddened us deeply. How or why anyone would want to do this is inconceivable.
Please join Warley Woods in their appeal to replace these benches.

Nigel Lloyd of the Warley Woods Pacers is running the Great North Run in September and getting sponsored. We have a sponsor form on the counter in the shop and I’ve put one on Facebook. I know some people have said they’ll be taking them around work to get more sponsors for him."

One of the saddest days of our life was when my Grandfather passed away because of prostate cancer. It was a long battle of healing and grieving in and out of the hospital room.
