It happened on Sunday afternoon and it didn’t rain! An idiosyncratic selection of images from a fantastically successful event, both in enjoyment and in raising money for Dulwich Helpline. Well done organisers!
Co-Editor and ex-Chair of the Friends Committee. I’m a teacher. I’ve worked in the education department of Dulwich Picture Gallery for 14 years, guiding, lecturing and teaching anyone from 7 years old to degree level. I have run a number of education projects (in a remand home, a prison, a local primary school) and am now the e-learning project developer. I commission articles rather than write them and am mainly in charge of the Gallery related articles.
Many thanks to all of you who came and supported our Dulwich Garden Safari fundraising event on Sunday. Over 800 people thoroughly enjoyed the 7 beautiful gardens which, despite the dreadful weather forecast, were bathed in warm sunshine for most of the day! We are really thrilled to report that the event raised over £5,000 for our work in the community with isolated older people.
We look forward to seeing you all again at next year’s Safari!
What a terrific afternoon it was. We weren’t expecting 800 people and were thrilled. To any of you who queued for a bit for tea – we are making different arrangements for next year (with lots more seating)! It was so lovely to see everyone having such a good time.
