Foster Hill Road Cemetery Event Details

The Friends of Foster Hill Road Cemetery host a number of themed talks during the year, which are open to the public and always prove very popular.  The Cemetery records are available at the Chapel during the Heritage Weekend in September and an annual carol concert is held near Christmas.  Other events are held to mark special occasions.

Members of the Friends lead several guided walks during the summer months. Each walk is themed and covers topics such as the Cemetery’s spectacular graves, its history, its wildlife, tales of those buried there and more.  Walks are also included during the Heritage weekend.  The walks last approximately 1.5 hours and the pace is gentle.  However, the cemetery grounds are uneven so a pair of stout walking shoes is recommended.

We are also happy to arrange bespoke walks for interested groups, please contact us for details.

The times and dates of our events vary, so please see our events calendar for more details.

Carol Concert – Fond Memories and Family Traditions

Our theme this year is Christmas memories from the past and tales of festive traditions kept by friends and families.

We hope you can join us to sing carols and Christmas songs in our beautiful chapel dressed in all its Christmas finery and afterwards for cake and mulled wine.

Singers from local Community Choirs led by Evelyn Sutherland will be providing an uplifting boost to the singing.

Our collection this year will be for Cancer Research UK – Prostate Cancer.  Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in males in the UK, and it accounts for 14% of all cancer deaths in males. Your donations will  help to fund research to  give men with  prostate cancer better survival outcomes.
