How do the Friends support the How Hill Trust?

A note from How Hill Trust Director, Simon Partridge

Every year, the Friends of How Hill raise a tremendous amount of money which goes directly towards supporting the work of the Trust. Below are some of the projects that the Friends have supported over the last couple of years.

Early in 2015, the Friends chairman, Elizabeth, got together with Sharon (our House Manager) with an idea to renovate the summerhouse for people to hire; thus providing another income stream for the Trust. After much discussion, the summerhouse has been cleaned out, painted and stocked with a table, chairs, picnic blankets, a kettle etc. The idea is that groups can hire the summerhouse, have full use of the gardens and, for evening functions, have the key to our new toilet block. Although only ready last June, we have had several customers all of whom have been delighted with the new facility.
