On Tuesday 16th June, Wymondham Town Council were delighted to welcome partners, funders and supporters to Rothbury Park for the official opening and celebration of the completed improvement project.

The event marked the unveiling of a new interpretation sign, which shares the story of how the park has been transformed through community feedback, partnership working and investment in the town’s green spaces.

Over the past year, Rothbury Park has been reshaped into a more welcoming, accessible and inclusive space for the community to enjoy. The improvements include new accessible pathways, better seating, natural play features, raised planting beds, wildflower areas and new planting to support wildlife and biodiversity.

The project has turned an underused green space into a place where people of all ages can meet, play, walk, relax, enjoy nature and spend time outdoors.

The new sign also recognises the organisations, contractors and funding partners who helped bring the project to life, including Wymondham Town Council, Greening Wymondham, Groundwork East, JDMA paving and landscaping, South Norfolk Council and the Greater Norwich Growth Board.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate this special milestone for Rothbury Park.
