Smeeton Open Gardens – 22nd June
Also a reminder about Smeeton Open Gardens on Sunday 22 June. We have quite a few gardens opening and there will also be music at the Kings Head during the afternoon and plant sales, cake sales etc. A very exciting day! Details can also be found on the Open Gardens National Directory. If you would like to volunteer to help in any way, donating plants, making a cake or you like making crafts and would like a stall we look forward to hearing from you.
Stay after the Open Gardens and finish your day off with a relaxing drink and listen to Brass on the Grass on Sunday 22 June at 6pm who are kindly donating proceeds to GEMS. Always a lovely end to the day.
Your help towards these events will go towards our next project of providing a night of respite for LRI patients receiving their cancer treatment.
Again a heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported GEMS throughout the year and have a lovely summer.
Lyn Grant
Trustee.
