Every ticket bought, every garden visited, and every cake and cup of tea savoured translates into millions of pounds in donations not only to some of the UK’s best loved nursing and health charities but to garden charities and community projects too. In 2022 we made donations of 3.11 million. Beneficiaries include Marie Curie, Parkinson’s Cancer Support and Parkinson’s UK. Photo Judi Lion
