Open gardens raise over £5.000 for St Michael's Hospice
OVER seven hundred people flocked to view some of the finest gardens in Cooden and West Bexhill, raising over five thousand pounds for St Michael's Hospice.
The nine stunning gardens, resplendent for the event bathed in glorious summer sunshine, situated in Herbrand Walk, Elstead Road, Cooden Sea Road, Birkdale, Collington Lane West, Ashcombe Drive, Brackerne Close, and Clavering Walk, were described by St Michael's Hospice's
Fundraiser, Suzanne Leonard as, "all beautiful but all very different".
Suzanne expressed grateful thanks on behalf of St Michael's Hospice to all those who kindly opened their gardens to the public and for the support from all those who had attended.
Suzanne said: "The hospice is really grateful to the garden owners for kindly opening their gardens."
"We are absolutely thrilled with the amount raised as the hospice desperately needs funds at the moment. It was a beautiful day so everyone flocked to the seaside and to have raised 5,195 is a fantastic result."
St Michaels Hospice provides specialist palliative care to the people of Hastings and Rother.
