About Us

We are a registered charity raising funds to help improve the lives of young people in Sussex, with the emphasis on those who have suffered social deprivation, trauma or disability. We only work directly with other charities, local authorities, schools and colleges to identify young people and families in need. In partnership with Tates Garden Centres, we also support local school and community gardening projects.

Our founder together with a group of volunteers raise funds by running two Santa's Grottos at Tates Garden Centres (South Downs Nurseries, Hassocks & Old Barn), organising/attending events, arranging talks and refurbishing/selling donated items. Our focal point for fundraising is our Museum of Gardening at South Downs Nurseries, Hassocks.
