Support us
Horticultural science, plant trials, advisory service, education and improvements to our gardens, shows and events are at the forefront of the Society's charitable remit. But as we receive no government funding and members' subscriptions only provide around a quarter of funds needed for our charitable work, we rely on donations, legacies, sponsorship and voluntary work.
