The Friends of Stotfold Cemetery group is a wonderful community-driven initiative whose goal is to enhance the cemetery environment through volunteer efforts.
This dedicated group works alongside the council to undertake various projects that benefit the cemetery’s appearance and usability.
Recent projects by the Friends of the Cemetery include:
• Flower and shrub planting: volunteers regularly plant seasonal flowers and shrubs to ensure a welcoming and attractive landscape
• Memorial restoration: volunteers support with cleaning and restoring older memorials. This ensures they remain dignified and respectful commemorations
• Community engagement: the group will often organise events such as remembrance services and historical tours. This helps connect residents with the cemetery’s rich local heritage.
New volunteers are always welcome. No prior gardening or maintenance experience is required. Instead we just ask for enthusiasm and respect for this special place.
If you would like to join or learn more about upcoming projects and events, please do contact the council or visit our dedicated Friends of the Cemetery webpage.
