Walking past GWL, you can now see the purple leaves of Heartbreaker Hebes and silver-green foliage of Lady’s Mantle in our very first garden! With thanks to the Royal Horticultural society and pupils at Hampden Primary School, we’ve been learning a lot about plants and gardens and we’d love to share this with you. We’ll be reading our favourite women and gardening stories, followed by optional winter pansy planting from 2.30pm.

So lovely to talk to other people, to sit back and listen to extracts from books. So glad I came!’ – Story Café participant
