Ready, Set, Rawcliffe! – Party in the Park

Every year, York Cares hosts a Big Community Challenge – four weeks of volunteering delivered by our ECO Team partners and volunteers from across York. This year, our challenge is ‘Ready, Set, Rawcliffe!‘, and focuses on making Rawcliffe Country Park a more sustainable, more enjoyable, place for residents and visitors of our city to enjoy. On the final day, we’ll be hosting a ‘celebration’ event to inaugurate the park, and show people how unique and vital a green space Rawcliffe is for York.

Join us to cut the ribbon on a new, improved Rawcliffe Country Park! There will be music, food, activities – and you can try out our new ‘soundwalk’ trail of Rawcliffe. No booking needed, just turn up!
