Open Gardens

Cattistock Virtual Open Gardens 2020! 

Our gardens have all felt the benefit of this lockdown so the Open Gardens Committee have decided to hold a “virtual” Open Gardens on the weekend of 13th& 14th June. There will be a chance to view some beautiful images taken in many gardens over this weekend, on this website from Monday 15th June.  We have included some photos of people’s compost heaps too as they are such a valuable haven for all kinds of wildlife!

Please also take a minute to visit the JustGiving Page link here.   We are collecting on behalf of Weldmar Hospicecare Trust, who like so many local charities, are finding these times particularly challenging.

Weldmar Hospicecare Trust cares for patients with cancer and other progressive conditions, such as motor neurone disease, who require specialist help. Patients in north, south and west Dorset have a seamless service, whether they need care and advice in their own homes, at the Inpatient Unit in Dorchester or at the Day services in Weymouth, Bridport and Shaftesbury community hospitals.

The organisation needs our help more than ever at the moment as their retail sites remain closed and many fundraising events have been cancelled, so if you have enjoyed viewing the Cattistock garden photos, please give generously via the JustGiving link.
