Macmillan Legacy Garden at Tatton Park Flower Show 2023
About the Macmillan Legacy Garden at Tatton Flower Show
We invite you to visit us at our Legacy Garden at the Tatton Park Flower Show between 19-23 July 2023. Lynn Cordall, winner of Best Garden 2022 at Tatton, has designed this beautiful space to pay tribute to the ordinary people who leave a gift in their will and support people living with cancer.
Our legacy team and volunteers will be on hand to provide information about how gifts in wills make a difference to people living with cancer. In 2021, supporters raised £90.4 million through gifts in wills which helped fund over a third of Macmillan’s services.
Download our Macmillan Legacy Garden leaflet to find out more about Lynn Cordall and the beautiful plants featured in her design. You can also read about some of the people Macmillan has been able to support thanks to the generosity of gifts left in wills.
You must purchase your own ticket to the show. For more information about traveling to the flower show, can be found on their website.
How gifts in wills help
Over a third of Macmillan’s vital services are funded by gifts in wills. You can leave your stamp on the future of cancer care by leaving a gift in your will to Macmillan.
The number of people living with cancer in the UK continues to rise and so every gift we receive is essential. Each one means we’ll be able to keep doing whatever it takes to support people who need us in the future. This includes providing physical, financial and emotional support in your local area.
We understand that this is a big personal decision. We hope that after making sure your loved ones are taken care of, you’ll consider leaving a percentage of your estate to us as well.
Find out more about the impact of leaving a gift in your will.
