Manx Wildlife Trust were pleased and proud to have been involved with the first public opening of the Government House Gardens on Sunday 21st June.

The gardens looked particularly beautiful and a wonderful time was enjoyed by all those who attended.

The volunteers of the Manx Wildlife Trust did sterling work helping to raise funds with a raffle, plant stall and a mini version of the Trust’s Wildlife Shop at Peel, as well as providing delicious tea and cakes. The Wildlife Trust profited by over ?760 and were delighted to be asked to be involved with this special inaugural event.

Thanks were extended to the Lieutenant Governor for allowing this open gardens event to take place.
