Originally set up in 1927 to support district nurses, the National Garden Scheme now raises millions of pounds for nursing and health charities each year. We also support charities doing amazing work in gardens and health, grant bursaries to help community gardening projects and support gardeners at the start of their career.
In November 2024, we donated £3,501,227 from money raised at our garden openings during the year. You can read about the charities we support below.
