Story

Time is running out for Chelsea Physic Garden's
Victorian teak and cast-iron glasshouses. 

But we have been given a lifeline!

The John Browne Charitable Trust has generously pledged to double all donations over £100 made towards our appeal, up to a total of £500,000 made before 31 March 2021.

Every pound you send my way will be doubled under 'The Hothouse Challenge'. As long as I raise over £100 the amount will be doubled. My target is £500 which means £1,000 for the glasshouses. Together we can raise the temperature inside the glasshouses while outside the temperature goes down, and
 me and my fellow CPGers peddle the distance to South Africa on our daily cycle to work through the winter months....

Thankfully, two years ago, with Lottery funding, we got a foothold to start the restoration of the glasshouses so future generations can enjoy the amazing plants they shelter. Our task now is to raise the final £1m to complete the restoration. 

Together we can raise the roof and smash The Hothouse Challenge!

Thank you!
