Another great hospice garden from Greenfingers

Chestnut Tree House in West Sussex is the latest children’s hospice to benefit from the work of the Greenfingers charity. The Woodland Walk was opened on 19th June, which Ann-Marie Powell Gardens and Garden House Design have turned from wild woodland into an enchanting wooded area that the children, their families, friends and the staff can enjoy for years to come. Rolawn, the growers of Britain’s finest turf, were delighted to supply Medallion turf for areas that needed to be grassed as part of the gardens sensory area.

Emma Hanford, Greenfingers Garden Projects Manager commented ‘At Greenfingers we are always grateful for the support we receive from suppliers within the horticulture industry and beyond – without this help we simply couldn’t produce wonderful gardens like this one at Chestnut Tree House. Thank you so much to everyone at Rolawn for your help and involvement.’

Jonathan Hill, Rolawn Sales & Marketing Director responded ‘The contribution we make is such a small element of a massive effort the charity put into this extremely worthwhile activity. We are always delighted to play our part and look forward to the next project.’

Greenfingers Charity – Rolawn’s chosen charity and that of most in the horticultural industry, who build sensory gardens at hospices for children with life limiting conditions.

Chestnut Tree House – Is the only children’s hospice in East and West Sussex and cares for over 280 children and young adults from 0-25 years of age with progressive life-limiting conditions from Sussex and South East Hampshire.

Important update: Temporary 6.5% surcharge effective 7 April 

At Rolawn, we are committed to maintaining the high standards of quality and service our customers expect, so we want to be open with our customers about a change that will affect pricing from Tuesday 7th April. 

This decision has been taken in response to disruption to energy supplies, which has led to significant increases in wholesale prices, affecting not only fuel and fertiliser but also costs throughout our wider supply chain. As a business that relies heavily on fuel for both transport and operations, these sustained cost pressures have become increasingly difficult to absorb.  

While we have worked hard to mitigate the impact, the scale and pace of recent price increases have now exceeded what we can sustain internally, and we therefore need to recover a proportion of these externally driven increases. 

From Tuesday 7th April, a temporary 6.5% surcharge will apply to all products.  

We know that any increase in price is frustrating, particularly at a time when many businesses and households are already feeling under pressure. That is why we want to be clear that this is not a decision we have made lightly, and not one we wanted to make. It has been introduced solely to help offset unavoidable cost inflation and allow us to continue delivering the quality, reliability and service standards associated with Rolawn. 

We will continue to monitor market conditions closely and will review this surcharge as soon as circumstances allow, providing reasonable notice of any changes. We recognise that any price increase is unwelcome, but this step is necessary to ensure the continuity and reliability of our operations during a period of ongoing uncertainty. 

We remain committed to providing the quality, reliability and service standards you expect from Rolawn, and we truly appreciate your understanding and continued support. 

If you have any questions, please contact our customer support team who will be happy to help.
