Today we have some very exciting news for you!

Over the past year, we have been working closely with our friends at Keep the G in WGC collaborating on a range of projects including the Biopark Appeal, the Vintage Fair, the Save WGC protest and various other applications and events.

During this time we have come to realise that while our organisations are slightly different, our primary aims and goals are very similar, namely to protect and promote Welwyn Garden City.

So, we are pleased to tell you that we have decided to join forces, and our two organisations will be merging to form one, more cohesive and formidable organisation for WGC residents.
