Thank you to everyone who visited the gardens, with your help we raised £3,000 for Parkinson's UK and an additional £995 for other charities. We hope you enjoyed the day and look forward to seeing you again in 2012.

Pioneer Nurseries gave Open Gardens a generous donation of £100 to include a 10% discount voucher on the back of the ticket.

Do not forget to use it - to brighten your garden for autumn, perhaps -  before the end of September 2010.
