Welcome to Greenfingers

Greenfingers is a small charity which is dedicated to creating magical gardens for children’s hospices around the UK. Greenfingers is ten years old, and during its life has created 29 special gardens. The benefits of these gardens are tremendous to children staying in hospices, and their families too. 

A Greenfingers garden can be a place to play or to rest, a place to laugh or to cry, a special place for memories whilst experiencing the tranquil benefits and values of nature. Above all, every garden is special because every day is precious….. and that is why Greenfingers is committed to helping more children in hospices by creating special gardens for those hospices unable to provide that relief and outlet to the families and children they care for. Please take a look at our site and get involved in helping more children in hospices, thank you.
