Description

At the Greenfingers Charity Annual General Meeting on 31st October, a significant leadership transition took place. Sue Allen, who has been the driving force behind the charity during her tenure as Chairman, stepped down from the role. Sue, however, will continue to serve the charity as a dedicated Trustee for another year. Taking up the reins as the new Chairman is Boyd Douglas-Davies, a longstanding supporter of Greenfingers and the founder of the hugely successful Garden Re-Leaf Day annual fundraising event. Boyd’s vision for the future is clear – to create more beautiful and therapeutic gardens for children in hospices across the UK and provide essential on-going maintenance and makeovers for existing projects. However, this mission will require continued financial support from the industry, the public, and partners, and Boyd will continue to be involved in the ongoing programme of fundraising events to support this.
