CHERITON Fitzpaine Garden Club has had a busy time lately. At our last meeting in November, Marion Dale came to talk us through her experiences of building an RHS Show Garden at the Malvern Show and how she raised the money to go about it (£20,000).

Despite it being a harrowing and stressful time, with endless unforeseen difficulties, Marion ‘s hard work resulted in a Silver award at her very first attempt.

In order to continue having the best speakers and social events, the Club is always fundraising. This month we took a stall at the Parish Market and members excelled themselves with a huge selection of cakes, resulting in £172 for funds.
