Governess Cart offered in garden centre’s Ukraine fundraiser

 

The Pot Place Garden Centre in Plumpton, Penrith, is seeking a donation for its Ukraine appeal in return for a Governess Cart.

 

Paul, from the The Pot Place says the cart would make a statement piece in any garden centre display. “We don’t have the indoor area here but most centres do and it would make a great centrepiece for a seasonal displays,” he added.

 

“We were given Governess Cart by a local lady, who wants us to sell it and put the money towards our Ukraine appeal. 

 

“We’re looking for a donation of £1,000 plus – it’s nothing if you see the craftsmanship.”

 

The Pot Place is still taking ambulances out to Ukraine so the fundraising goes on. In early October they’ll be out there again with an ambulance, a 4x4 evacuation vehicle and three paramedic motorcycles.

 

 

In May the Pot Place took two ambulances and a paramedic bike to Lviv and these are now in use over there.
