Thank you to everyone who came to our plant sale and helped raise nearly £800. Recently we have given £1,200 to the South London branch of MNDA which are really struggling to provide help to families facing this terrible diagnosis during lockdown. We are also sponsoring a local project that helps women of a refugee background enjoy weekly sessions doing gardening and socialising in Tooting's community garden. Since 2020 we've helped The Furzedown Project, the local food bank, Furzedown Youth Group and Penworthan Junior School create an urban garden in their playground.
We now have a contactless card reader - this is available for any local groups or charities to borrow - please get in touch!
We are always looking for new sponsors, raffle prizes and people to help join the fundraising fun!
