Bewitching new residents of Nelson's Victoria Park take shape

Yesterday families were invited to Nelson’s Victoria Park to discover more about a magical trail coming soon to the park!

Chainsaw artist Mike Burgess will be giving a demonstration as he creates the first of the trail’s spellbinding characters.

The new sculpture tail will take visitors on a one mile walk around the Nelson park, with lots of different activities along the way.

Councillor Nadeem Ahmed, who represents parks in Pendle, said:

“We’re really excited about our plans for the witch-inspired trail and we just know local families are going to want to come and see it for themselves.

“Mike Burgess’s carving demo will give them a little taster of what’s to come.”


Victoria Park’s witchy trail is being funded through Up & Active, a new health improvement programme to help Pendle people improve their activity levels. Visit www.upandactive.co.uk to find out more.
