About The National Gardens Scheme (NGS) - United Kingdom

This Flickr group is dedicated to showing photos taken by Flickr members of flowers and gardens which are open to the public as part of the National Gardens Scheme.

The group promotes the charitable work of the UK's National Gardens Scheme.

The NGS is a registered charity which opens gardens of quality, character and interest to the public

Since 1927 the scheme has raised almost £40 million to support nursing and caring charities, £25 million in the last 10 years. The overheads are kept low, so most of the money from the garden gate goes straight to our beneficiary charities.

The donations are "unrestricted" which means the money can be invested in areas which these charities consider vital to future development, and which might be difficult to fund from other sources.

This group is dedicated to showing photographs taken by members of Flickr and put into the group. PLEASE DON'T ADD PHOTOS which are not in gardens that are in NGS.

But please feel free to recommend the group to your friends and family, and do get out to the gardens, take your photos, and add them to the group! The more photos we can have, the better!
