The Union Island Development Group was formed by several concerned persons on Union Island who shares a common goal. They raise funds by way of BBQs, Cultural Concerts, Dinners and other events on the Island.
With funds raised and other donations, the group successfully completed fencing the front section of the Ashton Cemetary and work is already underway on fencing the Clifton Cemetary.

The Clifton Cemetary will be outfitted with a concrete fence and a gate, the group decided to make the cemetery fencing projects a priority because of the constant damage to flowers and other structures by stray animals.
