QNIS visits Tyninghame House Open Garden Day

SGS was founded in 1931 to raise money for the Queen’s Nursing Institute Scotland. The Institute has been generously supported by garden owners and visitors in Scotland’s communities ever since. Today QNIS is one of four core beneficiaries of the scheme, receiving a share of the funds raised each year.

 Members of the QNIS team were on hand at Tyninghame House to share information with visitors to the garden about the work of QNIS and to talk about how the funds from SGS are used.

 The next open day at Tyninghame will be held on 28 June, from 1 to 5pm. Members of the QNIS staff team will be in attendance again, so please do come and say ‘Hello’.

 We love to hear from Queen’s Nurses who have visited a garden. Carol Cartwright QN, recently got in touch to tell us she had visited Dalswinton Estate’s Scottish Gardens Open Day. She told us it was a fabulous opportunity to say thank you to the garden owners for their support of QNIS.

 If you’d like to support QNIS by visiting a garden, the Scotland’s Gardens Scheme website has details of all the gardens and when they are open.
