Local News: How to join Garden Re-Leaf Day

Wendover-based Greenfingers Charity’s Garden Re-Leaf Day takes place on Friday 21 March. The event is the charity’s flagship fundraiser and will see events and activities taking place in schools, workplaces, community groups and garden centres to raise funds to help design and build magical therapeutic gardens in children’s hospices across the UK.

The popular sponsored walk also returns with walkers able to tackle a either a 25km route or a shorter 10km one, starting and finishing at Tring Garden Centre thanks to British Garden Centres. The special 25km route across the Chilterns will celebrate Greenfingers’ 25th anniversary. With a floral theme to the event this year, the charity is calling on walkers to dust off their walking boots, dig out their best (or worst!) floral gear and get ready to take on a challenge while raising vital funds.

If cycling is more your thing, Tring Garden Centre will once again be the hub for the Garden Re-Leaf cycle challenge. With routes ranging from 25 to 100 miles, there’s a challenge to suit every fitness level. Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or getting on your bike for the first time in years, this is your chance to go the extra mile for Greenfingers. Don’t miss out on this great day of fun and fundraising. See www.greenfingerscharity.org.uk for details, or sign up directly at www.bit.ly/3ERMfjT and start planning your floral-themed outfit today.
