Astbury Mere Country Park is a charity which is managed by local volunteers supported by Ranger Services purchased from East Cheshire Borough Council. We do not receive financial support from any local council to meet our running costs, which in 2017 will be more than £50,000. We rely heavily on charitable donations from public to meet a large proportion of our expenditure, Whether you visit the park to walk your dog, have a family picnic, go for a run or just stroll around the Mere; please help us by making a donation it would make a big difference and help us to maintain and improve your park’s facilities. Thank you. Gavin Wolfenden, Treasurer Astbury Mere Trust
