Fundraiser in memory of Allan Craig

Please see the crowd-funder (click  here ) in memory of Allan Craig organised by his brother Garry and mum Shirley. Allan came to volunteer with us for a while, and during that time, amongst other work in the garden, he helped rebuild the public pond and planted the snowdrops along the public path which will remind us of him each year as they bloom.

Shirley, Garry and a number of their friends and family are doing the Allendale challenge this year to raise money in his memory. We are touched and very grateful to be chosen as beneficiaries of this fund.

We wish them all very good luck and sunshine on the day of the challenge! Thank you to all who have donated already 🙏
