All About Friends of Hailey Park
We are a group of park users and local residents, dedicated to improving Hailey Park in Llandaff North, Cardiff (CF14).
We formed in May 2007 and have over 100 members who support our work via membership, or performing practical tasks such as being a committee member, attending meetings, events or workdays.
Minutes of previous meetings can be found HERE
Our aims and objectives are set out in our Constitution, and we work closely with Cardiff Council Parks Department, Police, local representatives, schools and other organisations such as Sustrans and Friends of Forest Farm.
During the past 2 years we’ve held monthly meetings, weekly litter picks, painted out graffiti on the changing rooms, refurbished the bowling pavilion and started regular informal matches again for all the family, installed a notice board, improved and increased seating and litterbins, carried out path maintenance and ongoing regeneration of the meadow (to increase biodiversity), nature events for everyone, cycle safety event, heritage walk and much more.
Every year in April a new Committee is elected - the Chair is currently held by Penny Bowers (Tel. 07836 532258); Secretary & Temporary Membership Secretary is Derek Kinsey; Treasurer is Donella Smith; the rest of the Committee consists of Sue Youngman, Paul Rock, Sarah Lewis, Russell Todd, Sylvia Ward and Francis Jones.
Our group wouldn't be able to function as well as it does without the help of the Parks Department at Cardiff Council, in particular ranger Gareth Stamp.

Membership
We currently have about 100 members. A strong membership is vital so users' views are represented and to attract grant monies.
Membership runs from 1 January to 31 December and costs either £3 per household or £3 per person. You can do as little or as much as you like.
Become a member; have your say and influence decisions at meetings; take part in events; or even sit on the committee. It’s up to you! Even if you don't want to be involved if you only take out a membership you can still help us attract grant momey to help improve the park.
