Peace Garden
Matlock Derwent Valley Lions Club has been looking for a project to say thank you to all the essential workers who kept our community going during the covid lockdowns and also to remember those who lost their lives due to covid.
Derbyshire Dales District Council have agreed that an area of Hall Leys Park at Knowleston Place can be used as a Peace Garden for this purpose and plans are now well established to do this.
A stone area with plants in front and a seat to sit and think will be provided
Pictures of the existing area and the proposed scheme are shown below.
This project will mean the Club has to raise a considerable amount of money to bring it to fruition and if any member of the public or local businesses would like to donate to this cause the Lions club would be grateful for your support. We are grateful to past Mayor of Matlock, Councillor Steve Flitter for a donation of £770 from his community fund
