02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

To support the Council in the maintenance and development of the Barnhill Rock Garden. This involves weeding/planting/designing and looking after several beds in the Garden for which we have sole responsibility, the redevelopment of other existing beds as required in conjunction with the Council, assisting the Council financially with major projects. This year we have funded a new footbridge over a water feature. Currently we are in the process of gaining funding earmarked for the renewal of the pump system for the ponds.
