Randlay Valley is in the heart of our community, close to Telford Town Park and within easy walking / cycling distance of the Town Centre, Hollinswood, Randlay and Stafford Park.

Hollinswood & Randlay Parish Council manages this Open Green Space for the enjoyment of our community and visitors.

The Valley is a large area with identified paths, wooded areas, meadows and fields and a wide range of flora and fauna.  The Friends of Hollinswood & Randlay Valley is a volunteer group of enthusiastic people who help to keep the area tidy, litter-free and to make this an enjoyable place to visit. 

We welcome lots of local people, for walking or dog-walks, cycling and picnics.  Within the Valley we have created a Woodland School which is enjoyed by Scouts and School Children.

We need volunteers on the last Tuesday of the month.

The social club is offering opportunities which are open to all but we would love to hear from the 50+ and who are looking to carry out some practical activity during the week.

The activities will take place on a Thursday morning between 10am and 12 noon undertaking minor repairs around the site, low level painting internally and externally couple with light weight pruning, weeding, car-park clearance, litter picking and fence painting.
