The annual Greenfingers Charity Fundraising Dinner is set to return later this year on Thursday 28^th November, with even more opportunities for supporters of the children’s hospice garden charity to dig deep and boost the annual fundraising total before the year wraps up.

A popular event on the Greenfingers Charity’s calendar, the fundraising dinner has seen its numbers expand year-on-year, with the 2023 dinner welcoming over 130 guests and a fundraising total exceeding £35,000. This year, on the cusp of the charity’s 25^th anniversary in 2025, the team is hoping to see these numbers increase even more.

Taking place at the stunning Grade-II listed Pendley Manor in Tring, Hertfordshire, the dinner will once again bring together Greenfingers supporters for a spectacular night of celebrations. A key highlight of the evening will – as always - be an auction, filled with incredibly generous donations from some of the charity’s most valued supporters, plus a drinks reception, this year generously sponsored by Vitax. 

Tickets for this year’s event will shortly be available for purchase, with tables of ten and individual tickets available. Due to previous demand, tickets are expected to sell out quickly so interested parties are encouraged to register their interest now to avoid missing out.

Linda Petrons, Director of Fundraising & Communications at the Greenfingers Charity said: “We’re so pleased that our Charity Dinner has cemented itself as such a key part of our fundraising calendar and are looking forward to its return later this year. Last year’s event was a fantastic night, led by our Patrons Imelda Staunton CBE and Jim Carter OBE, and was a true celebration of our work, our supporters and those that go above and beyond to help us continue our vital work in children’s hospices across the country. We have no doubt that this November we will be celebrating even more incredible people and businesses who have gone the extra mile to support Greenfingers.”

Call for raffle & auction prizes

Each year the Greenfingers Charity Fundraising Dinner enjoys a raffle and auction, both offering attendees the opportunity to snap up some truly stunning prizes. From products to weekend breaks, these prizes help to generate huge sums for Greenfingers as guests dig deep to further grow the fundraising total, whilst also bagging themselves or their team a special treat or experience.

Those interested in providing a prize for either the raffle or auction are invited to get in touch now by emailing linda@greenfingerscharity.org.uk

Linda Petrons added: “Our supporters are always so generous when donating prizes and we hope to offer the strongest line up of prizes at this year’s event.  Whether it’s something small, some huge or just something really unique we are sure that there will be at least a few willing participants ready to spend some money, all in the name of charity.”
