keen on repurposing; cobbles forming the paths were rescued from Liverpool Docks and it’s gratifying to think of the countless feet that must have trod them from century to century. During the Open Gardens, a nest box camera should be operational, giving visitors the chance to watch birds in their breeding home. A duck house shelters wild ducks and a series of ponds are crossed by a picturesque bridge, making the ideal spot to stand and survey the rest of the garden. Open Gardens entry tickets (£5) with map will be on sale outside Copthorne Village Hall on Sunday 20th July from 12.30pm; gardens open from 1-5pm. All proceeds, including those raised by plant sales and refreshments are donated to St Catherine’s. St Catherine’s Hospice makes an invaluable contribution to the wellbeing of its patients, their families and carers; they help anyone who is referred by a GP in Mid Sussex, Crawley, Horsham or East Surrey. As well as providing end-of-life care in comfortable, compassionate surroundings, St Catherine’s offer a Day Hospice, group activities and medical or nursing outpatient appointments. With such a valuable asset to the community being supported by Copthorne Open Gardens, visiting these seven uniquely different gardens will benefit many people while providing an enjoyable, relaxing afternoon.
