National Garden Scheme

Open Garden Weekend

9th May 2023

Following the success of last year's Open Garden event at the College, the public is once again invited to visit as part of the National Garden Scheme.

On 3 - 4 June 2023, visitors are welcome to explore Moberly Garden, War Cloister, Bethesda Garden and the Warden’s Garden. Our fantastic gardening team, Alan and Hayden, will be on-hand to share their knowledge and enthusiasm of maintaining these beautiful spaces. This year’s event will particularly showcase the efforts of the gardening team to enhance biodiversity and support the College’s broader commitment to sustainability.

Last year, the event raised almost £4,500 for NGS charities and we welcomed over 450 visitors to the College, which we hope to build upon this year.
