02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

The main reason for setting up the Friends of Pittencrieff Park was to protect the natural beauty and help improve the existing facilities and resources of the park. This is achieved by volunteers working with the Dunfermline Carnegie Trust and Fife Council gardeners in order to plant, maintain and improve parts of the park. This work by the volunteers is funded by grants, donations and fund raising through plant sales. The Friends also increase public awareness of the park through a website and Facebook.
