Curzon Park Residents' Association

Please see the poster below for details of a Charity Fundraising Evening on Saturday 12 October at Chester Golf Club.

Please could you consider supporting the Friends of Westminster Park with their exciting Spacehive funding application to redevelop the terrace area around the café in Westminster Park.

The proposals will deliver new surfacing, lighting, planting and seating for the benefit of all park users so we can make this a great social hub for the whole community. 

The project needs to raise at least 25% of the project costs via local people and businesses to make it happen.

Please give generously to support this worthy cause.

Someone on Curzon Park North was delighted to receive some flowers from Peter (age 6) as a “random act of kindness”.

We wanted to share the pictures with you.

We hope that the photographs and the kind act brighten your day, as they have done for the lucky resident to receive the flowers.

Hand Made for Dementia make Cannular Distraction Sleeves that are donated to hospitals all over the country. One of our residents donates the sleeves she makes to the Countess of Chester and Wrexham Maelor hospitals.

The sleeves are used to distract a patient with dementia from pulling a cannular needle out of their arm. The sleeves are popular with the nurses, saving them time and the patient distress by not having to reinsert the cannular multiple times.

Here are some of the sleeves:

And here is just some of the wool donations received from residents. Thank you!

The daffodil bulbs we planted a few months ago are already making an impressive display around Curzon Park.

For the first time, we also planted a number of snowdrops, and these can be seen on The Green, Northway and Curzon Park North.

A big Thank You for your generous donations and another big Thank You to all those ‘Planters, young and old’ who took part.

We want to build on the success of bulb planting year-on-year and we welcome your suggestions and as to where you would like to see them planted.

See below for a photograph taken on 3 March, a particularly bright sunny day here on Curzon Park, together with a selection taken recently by our residents.

With less than a week to go before our AGM on the 20 July we thought it would be good to share a few photographs that capture some of the highlights of the last year.

Highlights include:

1. The Italian-themed meal with a raffle, a quiz and a musical surprise.
2. The well-attended Carols on the Green of 2022.
3. The Dingle Project.
4. The King’s Coronation Big Lunch with great weather and a wonderful crowd.
5. A litter pick the next day.
6. The trip to RHS Bridgewater.
