The annual Macmillan Coastal Garden Trail was due to take place later this month but, along with many other events planned this summer, a decision was taken back in April to cancel this year’s event due to the coronavirus pandemic. Geoff Stonebanks, Trail organiser, tells us: ‘I contacted all the garden owners, some of whom were willing to consider opening, but many, including me, felt it was probably best to cancel the event and avoid owners going to a lot of trouble to get their gardens ready, only for it to be possibly cancelled at the last minute.’ Geoff and his Driftwood Fundraising Group have raised over £84,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support in recent years and is keen to try and raise some funds this year too, despite the current.
