Beautiful gardens opened
up to visitors in support of
St Luke’s Hospice
Thank you for picking
up this booklet...
elcome to our Open Gardens scheme 2011. This year, twenty- four wonderful gardens will open their gates to the public to help raise much needed funds for St Luke’s. We are sure that you will enjoy visiting these gardens as much as we did and we hope that you will be inspired to go along and see as many as possible. Each one is a delight to explore and your visit will be helping to keep the good work of St Luke’s going.
St Luke’s Hospice, Plymouth is a registered charity that relies heavily on charitable giving. St Luke’s provides specialist care for more than 2,800 patients every year. It costs more than £5.5 million each year to keep the Hospice open. Government funding is limited, so we must raise at least £4 million each year. Therefore, your support is invaluable.
Please take care when you visit any of the gardens. Safety in the garden is paramount. Wear sensible footwear. Please take care around any water features and steps. Some gardens may pose a problem of getting around for those who have difficulty with slopes and steps. Please always supervise children and dogs at all times. You do have a duty of care for your own safety and that of any child/children in your care and please ensure that they are in your sight at all times. Please note that some gardens may not be suitable for children. Car parking at all gardens is at your own risk. Please remember that most gardens are private property. They are open through the generosity and enthusiasm of their owners and have not been designed for the visiting public. When requested, please stay on the marked paths, avoid hazards, and take care to avoid damaging plants. Disclaimer: While every endeavour is made to ensure that all the details featured in this programme are true and correct at time of going to print, we do not take any responsibility for any changes, which may occur due to circumstances beyond our control.
Thank you for your cooperation and enjoy your visit!
Please be a ‘safe visitor’

Help to raise funds for your local
Hospice by
...Poignant words from a patient eloquently describing the way so many people feel about St Luke’s Hospice in Plymouth.
When faced with the reality of coping with a life-limiting illness, we believe that all patients should be entitled to the very best care available. St Luke’s has been providing specialist palliative medical and nursing care, free of charge, to patients from Plymouth, South West Devon and East Cornwall since 1982. A registered charity, we are passionate about offering our patients dignity and choice at a time in their lives when they may feel they have none. Our vision is to provide the best end of life care to all patients wherever their ‘preferred place of care’ might be - hospice, hospital or home. The St Luke’s network of care stretches far beyond the walls of the Hospice inpatient unit at Turnchapel, reaching out to more than 2,800 patients each year. Alongside the specialist medical and nursing care, patients are also offered practical, financial, emotional and spiritual support.Statistics show that the number of people living with life-limiting illnesses is increasing year on year. Alongside that, the need for high quality specialist palliative care increases also. When patients come to St Luke’s Hospice, they are often in great pain and their needs are critical. The challenge we constantly face is actuallypaying for that care.Government funding covers less than 30% of the cost of caring for patients. We therefore have to raise at least £4 million from the local community every year, so the fundraising never stops! That is why your support means so much.
“It’s a haven, & there is a great deal of love.”
