The Friends of De Waal Park was formed in 2008 by group of volunteers, comprising individuals who live in the area, to assist the city to maintain and improve the park for its citizens. They pay for the pond to be cleaned, for some gardening and for the all-important "pooh packets" for the dog walkers; they have repaired benches and arranged for the for the toilet block to remain open after hours. They have also upgraded the children's play area and arranged for additional tables and benches to be placed in the park.

The Summer Concerts will be staged in the original Edwardian bandstand and are free to the public.
