Landscape Industry Charity Partners

At London Stone, our commitment to family and community values is a driving force behind our charitable efforts.

Our Charity Partners

We believe in supporting organizations that make a tangible difference, both within the horticultural industry and in wider communities. That’s why we’ve chosen to partner with charities like Greenfingers and Perennial, known for their vital and transformative work. Greenfingers is renowned for creating therapeutic gardens in children’s hospices, providing a space of peace and joy for young patients and their families. Perennial offers essential support to people in the horticulture industry during times of need. Our support for these charities reflects our dedication to making a positive impact on lives.

Perennial

Established in 1839, Perennial is the UK’s sole charity dedicated to supporting the 500,000 individuals in the horticulture industry when they face difficulties. Perennial’s services offer free, confidential advice, support, and financial assistance to people of all ages working in or retired from horticulture, including landscape contractors, garden designers, suppliers, and their families.

Our Support

London Stone proudly holds the status of a Diamond Partner for Perennial, donating £5,000 annually to the horticultural charity. Additionally, we do further fundraising through our Landscape Specialist Scheme, donating £5 to Perennial for each joining member of our Landscape Specialist Scheme. Providing further support, we sponsored the charity’s annual Party For Perennial fundraiser in 2017 & ’18 and raised funds through our Development Days. We have also supplied materials to Perennial for show gardens at RHS Flower Shows. To date, London Stone has donated over £35,000 in money and materials to Perennial.

Greenfingers Charity

Greenfingers is a national charity dedicated to enhancing the lives of children and their families in UK hospices. Greenfingers achieve this by creating inspiring gardens where children can relax, play, and experience therapeutic benefits. These beautiful outdoor spaces provide opportunities for quality time with family, friends, and siblings, offering a haven of joy and respite.

Our Support

Since 2015, London Stone has been a steadfast supporter of Greenfingers. Through our Landscape Specialist Scheme, for every member who joins, we contribute £5 directly to Greenfingers. Additionally, we’ve participated in a festive ‘Santa Fun Run’ to raise funds for this remarkable charity and provided free materials to show gardens that help to raise awareness and much needed funds for the charity.
