Welcome

Cambridgeshire Gardens Trust is a registered charity whose aim is to encourage and develop research, education and conservation projects for heritage landscapes in Cambridgeshire. We organise a full programme of activities for members, including garden visits, lectures and social events. These give everyone the opportunity to meet and to network with a diverse and interesting group, and to create lasting benefit for communities in our county and beyond.

We warmly welcome new members and visitors to this website and to Trust events organised throughout the year.

CGT and Covid-19

The Trust’s Council of Management notes that Covid-19 virus is still circulating in the UK. While there are currently no restrictions on events, anyone with Covid-19 is advised to stay at home. We invite members and guests to consider whether participation in a particular event is appropriate for them.

CGT is committed to complying with the policy announcements of the UK Government and UK Health Security Agency as published and updated from time to time. Under current guidance, we can offer a full programme of live and on-line events and visits. However, should an event be cancelled either by the host organisation or by CGT, as a result of official advice, we will refund all pre-paid bookings.
