In August, Arun District Council presented FVCS with The Green Flag award for this year.  Many thanks to Maggie Lupton, her faithful helpers and Arun DC park rangers for working so hard again to achieve this.   Well done!   If you have a hankering to join a winning team and see Rectory Gardens be the best again next year, join the Garden Group which meets every 4th Friday of each month from 2pm-4pm.  Please come along and talk to Maggie to find out more.

Another succesful plant sale at the allotment and here at the Post Office pop up shop.

Great news!   The work of FVCS's Friends of Old Rectory Gardens has received justly deserved recognition.  Old Rectory Gardens has joined four other open spaces in the Arun District in being awarded a Green Flag for being a 'well managed park and green space and setting the benchmark standard across the UK and around the world.'   As well as being beautifuly maintained, the award is also a sign that Old Rectory Gardens boasts the highest possible environmental standards and has excellent visitor facilities.
