Welcome

The Friends of the Forster Country have one aim:

"TO PRESERVE FOR ALL TIME THE OPEN GREEN SPACE TO THE NORTH OF STEVENAGE KNOWN AS THE FORSTER COUNTRY."

Forster Country Walk
The Forster Country Walk will be opened on Saturday June 15th. It was to be opened by world famous novelist  Ken Follett but sadly he has had to pull out and will be replaced by Mrs Barbara Follett.
   The signage for the walk was made possible by a generous gift from Barbara Follett, our MP and friend for many years, in memory of John Hepworth. ImageThe unveiling of the first signpost will take place at 2.45pm alongside the memorial gates of the Thomas Alleyne School, opposite the Bowling Green at the north end of Stevenage High Street.                             
  This event will be preceded by a brief AGM which will take place at 2pm in the garden room of Springfield House, the other side of the Bowling Green, and followed by tea in the same venue.

  It is hoped that many Friends will be able to attend this event. Should the weather be fine, a walk to view the waymarked path will be an option.
