Join our Open Gardens 2025 🌻

Do you have a garden that you’d love to share?

There’s still time to join this year’s Open Gardens programme. Gardens of all shapes and sizes are welcome. There’s no need for perfection, just a welcoming outdoor space where visitors can appreciate your gardening handiwork, enjoy a cup of tea and perhaps a slice of cake!

Participation is free and you can choose a date that works for you. You’ll receive a fundraising pack along with support every step of the way to make your event a success. We’ll also provide collection buckets and tins for the big day.

If you have a garden that you’d love to share, please email: katie.webber@rowcrofthospice.org.uk or call 01803 210821.

A big thank you to our sponsor

Here at Majestic Tours we are so proud to support such an important charity in our local community. We know what a special role they play in helping patients and their families at the end of life and it is wonderful to play our part and sponsor the Open gardens once again in 2025.

– Mark Wright, owner of Majestic Tours
