Wykeham Remembers
Being part of our wonderful local community means a lot to us here at St Helens in the Park, so we're delighted to help spread the word about this lovely event taking place just down the road at St Helen's Church in Wykeham.

This Remembrance Weekend, the church will be opening its doors to celebrate the village's history, heritage and the people who have helped shape it over the years.

🌺 Saturday 7th November | 10am–4pm Refreshments from 1pm.
🌺 Sunday 8th November | 10am–1pm Remembrance Service at 10.45am.

The team at St Helen's are hoping to make the church a real hub for the local community, something we're more than happy to support!

If you're staying with us or live nearby, why not pop along and show your support?

We’ve been so busy recently that we almost forgot to mention… we were featured in the August edition of Yorkshire Living Magazine! 🤩

The lovely “Then & Now” feature takes a look back at 50 years of St Helens in the Park, from our beginnings in the scorching summer of 1976 to the award-winning holiday park you see today.

It’s a really lovely piece about how the park has grown and changed over the years, the generations of families who continue to return, some brilliant memories from the early days, and what makes St Helens such a special part of the Dawnay Estate today. There are some fantastic old photographs in there too! 📸

A huge thank you to Yorkshire Living Magazine for featuring our story during such a special anniversary year.

We still have books (and 🦕) available to buy from reception 😀 would make a lovely Christmas present for a child aged 3-7 🎄

MEET DIGBY! 🦕📚💚

We have something rather special available from Reception at St Helens in the Park, and there’s a lovely story behind it.

Lost for a Year is a charming children’s book aimed at younger readers, with an extra bit of fun along the way – a “Find Digby” challenge on every page! 🦕

And this is where it gets a little confusing… because this story involves three Sues!

The book was written by two authors, both called Sue. One of those authors was the best friend of our lovely customer Sue, who stays here at St Helens.

Sadly, our Sue’s best friend, one of the book’s co-authors, passed away from bowel cancer a few years ago 💚

Since then, our Sue has been doing her bit to help keep her friend’s book – and her memory, alive.

She lovingly makes the little Digby dinosaurs by hand to accompany each copy, and we’re delighted to now have them available here at St Helens.

The book and handmade Digby are £12 together, with an incredible £10 from every sale going to Macmillan Cancer Support and just £2 covering Sue’s costs for making Digby. 💚
Book can be sold separately £5.

We’d love to help sell as many as we can, raise some money for an amazing charity and help Sue continue something that means so much to her.

📚 Lost for a Year + handmade Digby – £12
💚 £10 from every sale to Macmillan Cancer Support
🦕 Available now from Reception

AND… watch this space! 👀📚
We also have a very special Meet the Author date coming soon, when one of the book’s authors, will be joining us here at St Helens! We’ll share all the details very soon.

A lovely little book, a handmade dinosaur and an even lovelier story behind them. 💚🦕📚
