The Friends of Maghull & District (FOMD) would like to express our immense gratitude to our local Cllr Marion Atkinson (pictured with crown!), who on behalf of Sefton Council has managed to obtain funding to pay for (1) eleven large trees and (2) our really popular Coronation picnic area (pictured), for our Woodend Community Woodland Project, sited at the southern entrance of Maghull from Switch Island.

Marion has been incredibly supportive throughout the three-year ongoing project and has really helped to make a positive difference to our local community.

With huge thanks and best wishes,

Frank (FOMD)
