Brick Fundraising Program
Help Restore the Heart of Our Conservatory!
2025 Appeal
Exciting news! The Central Brick Square in our Conservatory’s Temperate House is in the process of being renovated to provide a safer, more beautiful space for all visitors. Over time, the original bricks had shifted and heaved, creating uneven walkways. To ensure a welcoming and accessible experience, we are removing the old bricks, assessing and stabilizing the foundation, and reinstalling the existing bricks. Even better, all the work will be done just in time to open for the Spring Flower Show, March 8-23.
Now, we need your help to support this important restoration!
