Back in 2019 we raised funding to replace one of the glasshouses in Ravenscourt Park. The project was put on hold during the pandemic and there were many other delays (that were beyond our control). We are delighted to report that the project is now completed and we have created a warm, multi functional space for the benefit of our volunteers, school groups and other local community organisations. We will be holding a Grand Opening on April 21st (pm). if you would like to come along please let us know. Email [email protected]

Following the successful crowdfunding campaign in 2019, structural engineering reports meant that the trustees had to commit an additional £40k from reserves to the project. During covid the decision was taken to put the project was put on hold. We are delighted to announce that we will be working with Alitex and the glasshouse has been ordered. There is a 40 week lead in time, during which time we will be dismantling the existing structure and preparing the foundations.
