The Greenfingers Appeal - Adding life to days where days cannot be added to life

The Greenfingers Appeal is the charity of the gardening industry and is currently dedicated to the creation and improvement of the gardens at UK Children's Hospices.

Whilst generally the children are too ill to be actively involved, the grounds and gardens of a hospice play a vital role as a place of peace, solitude and calm, for parents, siblings, friends and relations. There are 42 Children's Hospices in the United Kingdom either running or being built. Each costs over £1.5 million a year to run and receives little government support. That's where we can and do, make a difference. The Hospices cannot afford to make gardens a priority for their precious funds. But, with your help, the Appeal can.

The Greenfingers Appeal really does make a difference - every garden is different, and every garden is special.
