If you become a member of the Co-op and select our Cause, every time you buy something from the Co-op you will personally earn 2p in every pound spent and the Co-op will give 2p to your selected cause. It really couldn’t be easier to help the Award-Winning Friends of Maghull & District (FOMD), over the remaining four months to raise £1500, to help protect and improve the cherished natural space known as the Dell adjacent to the Hare & Hounds pub.

What Is the NHS Wellness Dell Project?

The Dell project is our newest and largest and will focus on funding to action the project later this year. FOMD would like to seamlessly create an accessible path, water feature, reflective space and woodland planting in a cherished space, to establish a place of wellness for the whole community.

The NHS Wellness Dell Project will make a difference by protecting, making accessible and engaging the whole community in the heart of Maghull. There is overwhelming evidence of the health benefits of combined blue and green spaces which are we hope to enhance, whilst also encouraging wildlife habitat, eco-education and conservation.

Who Are FOMD?

The award winning Friends of Maghull District CIC are a reasonably new (founded in 2019) small group of local residents who have  been punching above their weight over the last four years with multiple environmental and social projects throughout Maghull, with the support of our community. We have been identifying, resourcing, and organising the community to produce project outcomes for the benefit of all. Please see the amazing award-winning projects that you have supported already: www.fomd.co.uk

Thank You to Our Local Co-op.

The Co-op in recent years have supported 25,000 local causes, thanks to their members, with each of the local causes receiving between £1000/£2000. Our local Coop staff are amongst the most friendly and charitable we have had the pleasure to meet. Who are often unrecognised not only for supporting above causes, but support food banks, organise ad hoc charity events, and giving their time to organised charitable events, whilst serving us in the midst of a pandemic.

Huge Thanks Once Again for Your Kind Support,

FOMD
