Ventnor Botanic Gardens Friends’ plaque unveiled at Ventnor Town Council’s Salisbury Gardens

On a wet and windy day, the Friends’ arrived to see the unveiling of the plaque at Ventnor Town Council, for all of the hard work they undertook in restoring the flower beds outside the Council building at Salisbury Gardens. The big tidy last year to bring the beds back up to scratch was a mammoth task, but the results have been astounding.

Their continued maintenance of these has kept the entrance to the Green Room looking fabulous and has received many great comments from visitors and passers by alike.

She said the Task Force members are delighted to do this good turn for their neighbours and look forward to a growing relationship with the Town.
