Fylde Memorial Arboretum and Community Woodland
The Fylde Memorial Arboretum and Community Woodland is located in fields next to Moor Park School. It was unveiled on 23 February 2009 following a £14,000 grant from the Forestry Commission English Woodland Grant Scheme and funds from First TransPennine Express. Blackpool Council's Parks Service designed the plans for the memorial woodland, while rangers worked with local school children and community groups to plant trees.

Officially opened in June 2009 with a service of dedication, the arboretum has a main memorial plaque as well as 16 smaller plinths. It is run by the Arboretum Committee, an offshoot of the Fylde Ex-Service Liaison Committee, with the aim of providing the service associations, and the people of Blackpool and the Fylde, with "a place of peace and beauty in which to remember their fallen comrades and loved ones". The woodland has 2,500 trees, from the Forestry Commission, all planted and available for dedication.

Friends of Moor Park
The Friends of Moor Park group was set up in January 2007 by local residents to help restore the park. The group's aims include to restore the disused bowling green and improve the park's footpaths.
