Thank you to our wonderful volunteers from Wokingham in Need and Dell Technologies for their passion in maintaining this lovely garden we created at Wokingham Hospital. Work is now underway to extend this to a Therapy Garden to be used by the Therapy Team at the hospital, we hope to join them too with members who are qualified to help.

We look forward to a long and worthwhile relationship with the hospital and hope to be putting events on at the garden for the benefit of the patients, staff and visitors – watch this space.

Thank you especially goes to our existing supporters and new (whose names will be appearing at the garden soon).
