Recently, we donated our “Hay” coffee table in
English walnut and oak for the Big Green Quiz auction (May 10), which was held
for the eden project and Southbank Centre Roof Garden and
associated education and training programmes. The project created a new urban
green space on the roof of the Queen Elizabeth II Hall as part of the Festival
of Britain’s 60th anniversary celebrations. The initiative brought
together groups of vulnerable people including the homeless, ex-offenders and
addicts to transform a concrete roof space into a fabulous summer garden on the
Thames. This garden is now open for this year, so please if you are passing do
visit.
We were most pleased that the table raised as much as it
would have cost to buy from us (£1500).
