Challenge Fencing Charity Partners

We are delighted to be the official sponsor of Perennial’s Special Events programme in 2018.

Perennial is the UK’s only charity dedicated to helping everyone who works in horticulture, and their families, when times get tough. Established in 1839, Perennial provides free and confidential advice, support and financial assistance to people of all ages working in, or retired from all branches of horticulture. This help extends to spouses, partners and dependent children.

Perennial’s history is rooted in the great country houses and estates of Britain, having been established by garden and estate owners as a pension fund for Head Gardeners upon retirement. We are looking forward to supporting Perennial’s work in 2018 through our sponsorship of the charity’s annual special events programme – a series of garden visits and tours to 15 of the UK’s most beautiful gardens, many of which are rarely open to the public.

Events confirmed for 2018 include;

• Guided tours & light lunch at Little Compton Manor & Mill Dene Gardens in Gloucestershire. 
• Also of interest are tours of Great Fosters in Surrey designed by Kim Wilkie. 
• Guided tour, afternoon tea & a glass of prosecco at the Salutation Gardens in Sandwich. 
• The carefully restored gardens of Highnam Court in Gloucestershire.
