Wotton Community Sports Foundation, the community charity that funds, manages and operates Wotton Community PARC, with the help of many amazing volunteers, was awarded the King's Award for Voluntary Service (KAVS) in November 2023

Equivalent to an MBE, KAVS is the highest Award given to local voluntary groups in the UK and we are only the second charity in Gloucestershire to have received this prestigious award.

Mr Edward Gillespie OBE DL, the King's representative in Gloucestershire, will present the charity with a crystal trophy to mark this achievement at a short ceremony at 12.30pm

It has been 25 years since the PARC's inception and we are keen for as many people from our community to share in our silver jubilee as part of the wider PARClife celebrations

Indulge in the simple pleasures of good company and delicious food at PARClife 2024

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with local butchers and bakers, producers renowned for their commitment to quality and flavour.

From tender, juicy meats grilled to perfection, to freshly baked buns that elevate every bite, our BBQ offerings will be crafted with care and served to order

Fancy something sweet? Whether you're treating yourself to a well-deserved indulgence or picking up a box to share with loved ones, our cake and cookie stand will be a celebration of irresistible flavours and delightful moments that sweeten any occasion. What will it be? A velvet chocolate decadence, a jam filled Victoria Sponge or lemon drizzle cake bursting with tangy citrus flavour

And of course, it wouldn’t be a summer festival without ice cream, lollipops and candy floss. We have it covered!
