Cherfold Flowers

Lynchmere

Cherfold Flowers was established in 2010 by Caroline Oleron. Cherfold have a reputation for colour, texture and natural floral design. They have a strong appreciation of natural beauty and abundance and love the people they work with. My name is Caroline Oleron and I am a florist and grower with a strong appreciation of natural beauty and seasonal abundance. I established Cherfold Flowers in 2010 and have developed a reputation for colour, texture and natural floral design. The flower studio is now based in my garden on the Surrey/West Sussex border. It’s here you’ll find me with an abundance of seasonal beauty, plus of course Monty the studio dog. I love the gentle atmosphere and the warm, inspiring space. Brides, homeowners and companies come to Cherfold Flowers because they trust me to create memorable floral designs. Artistry and quality are core to the work I do here at Cherfold Flowers. I’m a self-taught gardener who went to art schools in London and Paris. I lived on a kibbutz and developed a talent for photographing atmospheric still life. When my children were young, I fell in love with gardening. I have been cultivating my knowledge of botanicals and bulbs, shrubs and scent ever since. My approach is one that prioritises seasonal, British-grown produce and surprise. For instance, a groom’s buttonhole may contain a rosemary sprig or funghi from the local woodland floor; a bride may carry a bouquet that reflects her elements of grandmother’s cottage garden; and an office space will be transformed by luscious greenery and foliage.

Brill-me

London

Dog walking, gardening and cycling are some of the outdoor activities I actively engage in and I want to help others become more aware of their own wellbeing, enabling them to identify and implement personal coping strategies. My background is a rather varied one from being a ski instructor in Switzerland to working in the private, voluntary and independent sector and more recently in a Local Authority’s Learning and Development Department as a Workforce Development Manager. With a proven record of achievements and following a highly successful partnership with the NHS, who commissioned me to plan and implement a 12 month training and events programme linked to health and wellbeing, I decided to create my own company, Brill-Me Ltd. My aim is to support more groups and individuals with their emotional health and wellbeing through preventative early intervention and identification. This includes self-regulation and awareness raising for individuals who can in turn support people around them.

Nottingham

Toni Jarvis is a qualified Project Manager with 30 years of business expertise. Along with fellow directors John Newton, Niall O'Hagan, Marielle Newton & Pat Burgess we run Tiger Community Enterprise CIC. The community enterprise was set up to support enterprises and assist individuals and organisations to grow. Whilst we started with a focus on supporting local businesses and community organisations we have evolved to encompass the delivery of projects that support our core aims - to help people help themselves. We work in conjunction with partners to offer the widest range of options to the community to enhance their own skills and opportunities. Whether that be to build work skills to move down the career path, showcase talents and/or business, offer empowerment opportunities in the community to build confidence, communication, and contacts to avoid social isolation or to do our bit for the planet through our recycling project. You can find information on some of the projects and partners we have worked with on our Projects page, and you can keep up to date with our current activities on our blog and events page. In April 2022 we opened Tiger Community Hub in Nottingham City Centre to allow us to support a wider range of the Nottingham community.

Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden

Warrington

Introduction to the Garden Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden was created by a wealthy Warrington banker, Thomas Parr, around 1830 when he built a new house and estate for his family. The land nearest the house was designated as parkland to give a suitable setting to the mansion and the outer areas were farm land. The landscape that existed at that time was incorporated into the estate and many of the woodlands, ponds and avenues that formed the parkland then still remain in place today. As a whole these features form a significant record of a landscape designed in the manner of a gentry country estate. It appears, from historical records, that the estate was at its height from 1875 – 1899 and this is considered to be the most significant period for the design and productivity of the garden. The house was demolished in 1975 but the 4 acre walled garden was retained as a local amenity. English Partnerships refurbished much of the garden as part of their development of the area and new housing, working closely with the Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden Conservation Project charity, the Warrington Organic and Wildlife Gardening Society and the Woodland Trust. Grappenhall and Thelwall Parish Council took ownership of the garden in 2005 and, with the help of funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) and the Friends of Grappenhall Heys Walled Garden, has developed the facility into a peaceful, well maintained and beautiful garden which is now a popular local visitor attraction and resource for horticulture, education and enjoyment.
