Friary Park

Consultation has concluded

Friary Park is going through an important regeneration programme – enhancing green spaces, providing more affordable homes – and creating more community spaces.

It’s a diverse community and there’s a real sense of neighbourliness and friendship.

Friary Park Community Centre is one of the main centres of Delve, a youth project, which local young people love and associate with happiness, feeling safe and having fun. As well as projects including The Felix Project, Stay and Play and weekly coffee mornings. The summer roadshow will be running throughout the summer for young people at Friary Park.

How can I help?

We'd love you to complete our sixty second survey. Tell us why you love where you live, and how you'd like to improve it.

There’s also a map for you to add the places you love to visit near you. This will help us understand more about what is on offer in your community.

How will I know what's happening?

Follow the project for updates and to be the first to hear about ways to get involved in opportunities in your community. Or, if you want to get more involved in what we’re doing and you’re a Catalyst customer, why not sign up to The Garden?

Friary Park Swap and Shop

6 months

Welcome to the Friary Park swap and shop. This is a private space for Friary Park customers who want to sell, swap, or gift pre-loved items while preparing to move to your new home. Please check out our Terms and Conditions before joining in

What can I sell, swap or gift?

If you’ve got any pre-loved clothes, children’s toys, shoes, ornaments, books, costume jewellery etc this is the space for you. 

You can also include larger items such as furniture, but please remember you’ll need to arrange how this will be moved when discussing your sale or swap.

How does this space work?

We've set up a map tool to help you upload photos and information about pre-loved items you want to sell, swap or gift.

The map works by dropping a pin on the map near to where you live – a bit like when you drop a pin in Google maps when you're trying to find a location. You and your neighbours can then view each other's items, by clicking on a pin, and get in touch to discuss selling or swapping them.

How to upload a pin to show what you'd like to gift, sell or swap

1. Click on the + on the map to add a pin

2. *Drag the pin to where you want it to sit on the map. It should be close to where you live but doesn't have to be exact. 

3. Answer the questions and add a photo. 

4. You're all done - it's that simple! 

*If you're dropping a pin on a phone or tablet, press on the + and select your pin as above. The pin will drop on the map automatically, but you can move it to where you want it. When you're happy with the location, press the set this location button above the map, answer the questions, and upload your photo.

How to enter your details on the pin to show what your item is:

  • Complete some quick questions about your item to help your neighbours know more about its age, condition, etc. 
  • Upload a photo of your item(s) to help your neighbours find out more
  • Provide your *contact details such as a mobile number or email address so other people can get in touch about your item(s) if interested. 

 *Please remember that although this is a private Friary Park group, it's still a public forum meaning people will be able to see these details. We strongly recommend that you don't post your address for this reason. Please give this to people privately once they make contact about your item(s).

If you're interested in an item

All you need to do is click on a pin on the map, look at the items, and if you're interested, please get in touch with the person using the details they've provided to arrange your collection, swap or payment.
