Chelsea Flower Show Charity Gala Preview
Monday 23 May 2011, 7-9pm
The Charity Gala Preview is the most stylish way to enjoy the world’s finest flower show. Despite the evening’s ever-increasing popularity, numbers are strictly limited, giving guests the opportunity to savour the delights of the show in comfort and style. With champagne, canapés, and music to complete the ambience, guests are guaranteed an evening to remember.
The 2011 Charity Gala Preview is in aid of the RHS
The RHS is the UK’s leading gardening charity, dedicated to inspiring people to get into gardening and giving them the skills to be better gardeners.
We help people to share our passion for plants through our gardens and flower shows; we work directly with children, schools and communities to help them create better learning environments and places to live through gardening; and we invest in research to improve horticultural knowledge, then share all the information we have through our books, website, our libraries and our helpline.
With your support we can continue this work and help share a passion for plants, encourage excellence in horticulture and inspire those with an interest in gardening.
