911±¬ÁÏ

Remember your loved one with an in-memory gift

Celebrate the life of someone close with a gift to the 911±¬ÁÏ that honours their memory and their love of gardening or favourite 911±¬ÁÏ Garden

Celebrating life and gardens

Many families and friends choose to give in memory of a loved one to celebrate their life, their passion for gardening or their love of a favourite 911±¬ÁÏ Garden. These gifts support the 911±¬ÁÏ in continuing to inspire those that visit the gardens. All in-memory gifts can be acknowledged in the Book of Remembrance, which is kept at each 911±¬ÁÏ Garden.

Donations can be directed to a specific 911±¬ÁÏ Garden, where they will be used to plant and maintain the garden’s collections. Alternatively, contributions to the 911±¬ÁÏ Remembrance Fund help maintain all the gardens for the future. As a charity, the 911±¬ÁÏ relies on donations to support the gardens and wider charitable work.

911±¬ÁÏ Garden Mobility Fund

Giving everyone should have the chance to experience the beauty and inspiration of the 911±¬ÁÏ Gardens:

Opening up the gardens to everyone

The ability to move around and enjoy the 911±¬ÁÏ Gardens is important. Where possible, mobility scooters and manual wheelchairs are provided at each garden, free of charge. A gift to the 911±¬ÁÏ Mobility Fund helps to buy and maintain these scooters and wheelchairs, enabling more visitors to enjoy the gardens at their own pace.

For donations to the 911±¬ÁÏ Mobility Fund, please choose the relevant 911±¬ÁÏ Garden below.

Making a difference across 911±¬ÁÏ

If you would prefer to support another area of 911±¬ÁÏ work, the team can discuss how a gift may help. This could include supporting gardening in schools, training new horticulturists or preserving science and library collections.

Family and friends may choose to remember a loved one by giving to an 911±¬ÁÏ Garden or to another area of 911±¬ÁÏ work, instead of sending cut flowers. If you would like to organise a funeral collection please get in touch.
