British Garden Centres is delighted to announce that it has raised £20,000 in support of Garden Re-Leaf Day, an annual event that raises funds for Greenfingers Charity.
Friday, March 21st, saw the UK’s largest family-run garden centre group organise various events in its 72 stores across the UK. Centres held many fun and exciting fundraising events, including raffles, cake sales, bingo nights, quizzes, fancy dress, tombolas, and “Naming” and “Guess the Number of” competitions, providing opportunities for customers to participate and raise money.
James Ducker, Events Manager at British Garden Centres, said: “We are so proud that the entire British Garden Centres family has come together to fundraise on Garden Re-Leaf Day for Greenfingers Charity, which is celebrating 25 years of creating magical gardens for children in hospices across the UK. These gardens have touched millions of lives, and we are aiming to smash last year’s incredible £15,000 and continue supporting this amazing cause that gives so much to so many.”
Linda Petrons, Director of Fundraising and Communications, added: “Greenfingers extends heartfelt thanks to every British Garden Centres store and team member for their outstanding efforts during Garden Re-Leaf Day. We deeply appreciate the generosity of the centres, teams, and customers, whose contributions will help us create therapeutic green spaces where families can make cherished memories.”
