We’ve had another busy competition season at Willowgrove this year – with a record turnout, picture-perfect weather and a real sense of community spirit! 

We’d like to thank everyone who participated and helped us make these competitions a resounding success – you’re all winners in our book.

There are several winners to announce, so without further ado, let’s get the awards underway!

Gardening and Fishing

Our keen anglers have been casting their lines and reeling in their best catches, and our green-fingered gardeners have been working hard to create some bloomin’ beautiful garden displays. 

Everyone was dedicated and determined to win, so now it’s time to announce the much-anticipated results.

St John’s Hospice Raffle

UK Leisure Parks is very much a family business, and the McCarthy family believe it’s important to support local charities and causes.

This year, we held a raffle in aid of St John’s Hospice – and we managed to raise a spectacular £500! 

St John’s Hospice is a charity that provides free palliative care to patients with life-shortening conditions. We are delighted to have helped raise this fantastic amount of money for such a worthy cause.

2nd Prize Raffle Winner – Marion Roberts

Congratulations to all of our worthy winners! Same time next year?
