Another record breaking Gardens Day Torrential rain did not deter visitors from flooding into gardens across the district in support of Wilmslow Wells for Africa, raising a record £6,500. Around 300 supporters visited up to 20 beautiful gardens. Chairman Joanna Southgate thanked the gardeners and the public for their support when nearly 10mm of rain was recorded. She said "we are absolutely delighted with the result. We are so grateful to the gardeners for their Dunkirk spirit in preparing their gardens in very difficult weather conditions over the past few weeks and to the visitors who showed the same determined spirit."
