The countdown is officially on for the legendary GCA Sunday Funday! Taking place on Sunday 26th January, just ahead of the GCA Conference, this much-loved event promises even more excitement, friendly rivalry and laughter, all in support of Greenfingers Charity. 

Garden centres are already signing up in force, but to make the iconic supplier vs garden centre showdown truly unforgettable, we’re calling on more suppliers to join the fun. A friendly nudge, a well-timed reminder or a bit of encouragement to your industry colleagues could make all the difference.

Afternoon Activity Sponsorship – £1,000 per Game

The afternoon’s competitive activities are shaping up to be a real highlight of the day, featuring archery, axe throwing, laser clay shooting and golf.

• Each activity requires eight sponsors: four garden centres and four suppliers. All garden centre places are now filled. 
• We’re currently looking for three more supplier sponsors to join Woodlodge, who is already confirmed as an afternoon activity sponsor. 

Evening Wine Tasting & Quiz Sponsorship – £500 per Round

As the sun sets, following a delicious buffet, the fun continues with a lively wine tasting and quiz, hosted by Guy Topping ably assisted by Heidi Towse,.

• There will be six quiz rounds, each co-sponsored by one garden centre and one supplier.  We’re delighted to confirm the following garden centre quiz sponsors: St Peters Garden Centre, Klondyke, Scotsdales, Castle Gardens, Bell Plantation and Ruxley Manor
• Supplier quiz sponsorship opportunities are still available

At just £500 per round, quiz sponsorship offers a high-profile opportunity to showcase your brand while supporting a fantastic cause.

Tam Woodhouse, Chair of the Greenfingers Charity Fundraising Committee, said: “Sunday Funday has been a highlight of the GCA calendar for many years. It brings our industry together, sparks brilliant competition and raises vital funds for the children and families who rely on Greenfingers gardens. We’d love to see even more suppliers get involved this year. Your support genuinely makes a difference, and we can’t wait to welcome you to what promises to be a fantastic day.”
