About Friends of Eaton Park

Friends of Eaton Park, formed in 2005, works with local residents, user groups and societies, Norwich City Council, and others to promote use of this historic park, and to protect and enhance its environment.

Our activities include short Friday walks (meet top car park at 10 am), conservation and planting days, open meetings with speakers, wildlife and other occasional events - apart from those organised by Norwich City Council or other groups of course.

Meetings are held on the last Thursday of the month except in August and December. The Annual General Meeting is in November. All are welcome but only members can vote.

How you can help:
To safeguard this historic park for present and future generations, you can join Friends of Eaton Park by completing this application form and returning it to us with your annual donation. You can attend meetings and will hear about events before they are publicised more widely.
