Charlie Groves, MD of Groves Nurseries, has handed over a cheque for £1,369 to the charity Julia’s House, after the recent charity auction organised by Groves Nurseries. Said Charlie, “We were delighted with the support we got from our suppliers and local companies, who donated so many items and of course the generosity of the many bidders on the day who helped us raise so much.”

The Dorset and Wiltshire based charity provides practical and emotional support for families caring for a child with a life-limiting or life-threatening condition, providing support in their own homes, in the community or at their hospices. Sarah Agnew, who collected the cheque on behalf of Julia’s House, thanked Groves Nurseries saying “We’d like to say a huge thank you to Charlie, his team and everyone involved for raising funds for our vital care. We really appreciate the hard work that went into the auction that raised this incredible sum.”
