Friends of Aden Country Park (SCIO)

About

The Friends provide and manage, through Music at Aden, a yearly programme of musical and theatrical performances in the park. We provide assistance in the form of organisation and volunteers in events organised by others. We serve on a range of bodies which manage the facilities and development of the Park. We provide funding to support initiatives to enhance the wildlife and natural environment in the park and assist in the development of educational initiatives in these areas. The Friends have maintained representation on the Aberdeenshire Council Development Group for Aden Country Park and assisted the Project Team working on the now complete Heritage Lottery Fund Project. Aden Craft and Gift shop, run by Friends, is open daily, and until the end of March 2025 was manned during the week by Staff and Service Users from Buchan Day Opportunities and volunteers and crafters for holidays and weekends. Since March, Volunteers and Crafters have manned the shop on a daily basis.
