Friends of Hartwood Paupers Cemetery
@fohpc.bsky.social
A local community group who have given the names & dignity back to 1255 once lost & forgotten pauper patients & staff from Hartwood Asylum buried 1895-1952
Winter has arrived, a quiet grace,
Soft snowflakes fall, a gentle trace.
Among the stones, the whispers rest,
Where those we loved now find their rest.

The earth sleeps deep beneath the cold,
While stories linger, softly told.
Frost-kissed branches, bare & still,
Hold the memories time can't kill

We really don’t know what to say, but wow! 🤩

Just when we thought this year couldn't get any better, another amazing achievement comes our way!

On our first year participating in Keep Scotland Beautiful, we’ve been awarded the highest level — Level 5 Outstanding Achievement!!

3kg left to sow in the Spring
