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.

Our Lunch Clubs meet once a month in a local pub, restaurant or hotel on the same day around midday to about 2.30pm to enjoy a two-course traditional meal consisting of a main course and dessert with tea or coffee for a reduced price.

Volunteer Organisers circulate menus, take member food orders and place orders with venues in advance and then attend the Club on the day to welcome members, collect payments and ensure the event runs smoothly.

Training, ongoing support and travel expenses will be provided.

Organisers are required  at The Barley, Newport, the first Wednesday of the month, The Old Orleton Inn, Wellington first Thursday of the month, The Fallow Field, Hadley, first Tuesday of the month
