Story
.
Since the Council removed funding to plant our gardens, twinned with the distress of a year long pandemic, our floral displays throughout town took a battering. Despite the many efforts to clean up areas, nothing comes close to seeing the colour of the flowers each year.
What could be any better to lift the spirits of our people and also get visitors back than a town full of vibrant colour.
Let's get Bank St gardens back and let us highlight others areas throughout town with splashes of colour.
If you care about Galashiels as we do and you want to help us put Galashiels back on the map for all of the right reasons and see our beautiful Bank St Gardens restored each year, then please donate.
We understand that this last year has been so dreadfully hard but now we are coming out of the dark and we have the chance to do this.
WHATEVER YOU CAN AFFORD, NO MATTER HOW SMALL, WOULD BE A MASSIVE WAY OF GIVING BACK TO THE TOWN WE LOVE ......GID AULD GALAE
