The Stone Soup Project seeks support from within the community to save Cherry Orchard Park. The Park belongs to the community and is in the care of DCC. The Park was abandoned by DCC and left derelict. In 2013 the residents of Cherry Orchard reclaimed the Park by removing over 600 bags of rubbish, removing all the weeds from around the edging, turning the sod, planting daffodil bulbs, shrubs, flowers and memorial trees, building a grotto and memorial walkway. In agreement with DCC Parks dept the grass was cut during the cutting season and all rubbish collected by the residents removed by the dept. This is truly a Peoples Park cared for and nourished by the community. Please support our Petition to stop the building of houses on our Park
