Landmark year for National Garden Scheme in 2024
2024 was another landmark year for the National Garden Scheme with the charity donating a record £3,501,227 to some of the UK’s best-loved nursing and health charities
The impact of these donations to their major nursing and health beneficiaries means thousands of people who live with health conditions such as cancer or Parkinson’s, who have poor mental health, or who struggle financially as unpaid carers, have been supported by our funding of the nurses, health professionals and case workers who support them.
The impact of this long-term commitment was celebrated in 2024 by the scheme’s milestone of 40 years of continuous funding for Macmillan Cancer Support, during which time it gave more than £19.6 million.
Thank you to all who opened, supported or visited NGS gardens in 2024.
A spokesman said: “As we take a garden break over the next few months, we hope you have a good New Year and look forward to welcoming you to some of our gardens in 2025.
