Description |
 |
 |
|
| The National
Gardens Scheme first started in 1927 and now raises £2
million each year for nursing, caring and gardening charities.
Every year NGS gardens across England and
Wales welcome over half a million visitors. NGS tradition
is of opening gardens of quality, character and interest is
supported by their patron, HRH The Prince of Wales.
Most of the 3,600 gardens are privately owned. Some open as
part of a group which gets the whole community involved. But
all the gardens are enjoyed by the garden owners and their visitors,
funding charities to help people who are ill or under stress. |
