This year marks the first time our ‘Tender Loving Care’ rose will be available to blossom in your own garden.

You are invited to dedicate one of our beautiful pink roses in memory of someone special.

Standing proudly within our grounds, our special rose ‘Tender Loving Care’ is a unique rose variety grown especially for our hospice. Our flowers are inspired by this stunning pink rose, symbolizing gratitude and admiration, making them the perfect choice to dedicate to our loved ones.

We invite you to dedicate a beautiful steel rose, inspired by our ‘Tender Loving Care’ rose to someone special. Each rose you purchase will be hand placed in our Hospice gardens for a special display on 2 & 3 July. After which your rose will be yours, to collect and display in your own homes and gardens.

Each rose will represent and celebrate treasured memories, memories like that of Jennifer’s.

2-3 JULY ROSES DISPLAY and

refreshments on sale, including cream teas made by our amazing catering team.

“I will be dedicating a rose to my grandad. I can remember from a very early age helping him in the garden, I have so many fond memories. As an adult I still enjoy gardening and it will be a fitting tribute to have the rose displayed in my garden to remind me of those times as well as the wonderful work the Hospice does. It also feels good to know that my donation will be making a difference to the lives of

others when they need it most.” – Jennifer

The donation you make towards our Roses appeal means that patients receiving our care right now will feel safe and comforted at the most difficult time. Your support ensures your community will receive the best care, not just today but in the future. This is now more important than ever before. You are helping to make every moment count. With our patients in mind we have set a minimum donation of £25 per rose to support the work of the hospice.

WE WELCOME YOU, THANKS TO BERKELEY!

In the spirit of ‘open gardens’, we are able to once again invite you into our garden thanks to the support of Berkeley. After extending the Hospice building in 2014, access down into our gorgeous hospice grounds became limited. We were still raising funds for our ‘paths project’ when Berkeley pledged their support and work began. Thanks to their generous support, the money fundraised to date means we can improve garden access even further for patients, families and visitors. A huge and heartfelt thank you!
