HMVCG is a non-religious, non-political, community group that is open to all and was formed out of the SOB (Save Our Bowl) campaign, that lobbied to encourage the authorities to route the proposed Metrolink extension around rather than through the beautiful Heaton Mersey Bowl.
Since our founding in 1999 we have organised twice yearly Farmers’ Markets & Family Fun Days at Easter and in the Autumn, to promote healthy and environmentally sustainable local foods.

| We have funded and lobbied for
enhancements to Heaton Mersey Park and the Bowl including the
installation of a new Play Area, benches, gates & railings and park signs and the development of a
master plan for the whole space.
We have run volunteer days to
help clear overgrown foliage, to plant flower bulbs and shrubs and we
have collected hundreds of bags of litter from the local parks and
ponds.
We have also organised and run Local History evenings to
help local people understand the historical and geographical context
that led to the development of the modern Heaton Mersey from a Bronze
Age settlement through the industrial revolution and on to present day.
