Cottingham Open Gardens Blossoms with Huge Fundraising Total
Wed 26th July 2023Cottingham Open Gardens returned to the community on Sunday 4th and 11th June with 19 gardens and residences taking part. Gardeners sold plants, enjoyed cream teas and encouraged visitors to take part in the Open Gardens raffle and in doing so helped to raise £6,281.21 for Dove House Hospice.
Dan Clipson from Dove House Hospice said, “We are delighted with the success of this year’s Cottingham Open Gardens. This long-standing event in the community sees homeowners working tirelessly across the year to ensure their gardens are in pristine condition for visitors to enjoy and it’s fantastic to see their hard work pay off in support of the hospice.
Each year, we are entirely reliant on events of this kind taking place across Hull and East Yorkshire and are always looking for new gardens, residences and other interesting features to add to the Open Gardens for our visitors to enjoy”.
Next year’s Open Gardens will return on Sunday 9th and 16th June 2024.
