Wareham croquet club
In 2025, Wareham Croquet Club began playing at Holme for Gardens following a shared vision of a welcoming and well-maintained setting. Seeking a suitable lawn and a supportive environment in which to develop the club’s activities, the members found an ideal partner in Holme The collaboration has since provided a structured yet sociable space for players to meet regularly, enjoy the sport, and strengthen local connections. Today, the club’s presence at Holme reflects a broader commitment to creating opportunities for community participation, wellbeing, and meaningful social interaction.
As part of the project development phase, we want to understand more about how local communities are using green spaces in the area already. If you live in South East Dorset, especially Wareham, Stoborough, Wool, Bere Regis, Lytchett Minster or anywhere in between, we’d love to know what motivates you to get out and enjoy nature, where you go and any barriers you face in doing so.
