Golden Jubilee Garden - supporters and sponsors

During summer 2002, we contacted some local organisations and businesses to see if they would like to sponsor the Jubilee Garden project or help us in any other way.

The project team would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have supported this project - including staff members.

Thanks to:

Addenbrooke's Charities and Addenbrooke's Art - for funding the work, the majority of the plants and commissioning the art.

Ridgeons Ltd - for their generous donation of trellis and planters.

All the estates and facilities staff at Addenbrooke's, who have done all the non-glamorous hard work on the site and kept the volunteers under control (some of the time)...

Cambridge City Council for their help and time in sourcing some of the plants.

The staff of the Press office, who arranged the opening and press coverage.

The Cardoza Kindersley Workshop for the impressive Jubilee sculpture.

The Paul Young Centre for the Arts, National Extension College, Purbeck Road for the donation of the rocks for the sculpture.

Individuals who have donated their time, expertise, spare plants and hard-earned cash including:

Mike Grevatte, Somerset - for the moulds for the cast fossils and shells.
