The Lee Manor Society Annual Plant and Garden Party was an amazing success this year.
It raised just over £2, 000 which will go to support the Society’s important work conserving the natural and built environment of the area.
That includes restoring the big bed at the north end of Manor House Gardens, planting trees in local roads and tracking planning applications which might result in eyesores being built. The Society also supports the Community Garden on Micheldever Road, which welcomes all gardeners.
The Society is hugely grateful to everyone who came along on Saturday and parted with their hard-earned cash, We are also indebted to the volunteers who donated plants, made cakes, donated prizes and helped rig and derig the event. You are all local stars and we couldn’t do it without you.
We are also very grateful to all the local businesses which donated prizes and the homeowners who allow us to use their front gardens every year.
The Lewisham East MP, Janet Daby also managed to come along, despite having a string of other local events to attend on the day. Plus she contributed a signed bottle to the raffle.
