Charitable status

Posted on Tagged , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

On 11th October we had the good news from the Charities Commission, confirming Gardening4Health as an accredited charity.

This is wonderful news, and will enable us to move forward with our stated aims:

We now have a newly formed Board of six fabulous Trustees to take things forward, they are:

Farah Brooks-Johnson, Richard Claxton, Boyd Douglas-Davies, Wendy Fenn, Maggie Haynes and Anne Wagstaff.

There will, very soon, be a page on this site to tell you more about each of them – and the unique skill-sets and experiences they bring to the charity.

So now the hard work begins!

Save The Therapy Garden

Posted on Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

This plea for help came yesterday from The Therapy Garden, in Normandy, near Guildford. Please do what you can to help.

“We are facing an unprecedented funding crisis which is putting the future of The Therapy Garden in jeopardy

We receive no statutory funding and rely on the generosity of others for over half our costs

Increased demand on Trusts and Foundations has seen a significant reduction in the funding we previously received

The community we support needs our help more than ever

Please make a donation to our GoFundMe crowdfunder by clicking the link

We understand how tough it is for everyone in this current economic climate but every donation will make a big difference!

Please share our campaign with all your friends, family and colleagues. Please do it now, the more people that can donate and help us spread the word the better!

Why not organise a fundraising activity or an online event to help raise funds to save the garden?

We are confident that as a community, we can do this!”
