Leicestershire and Rutland Gardens Trust

'Founded in 1997 with the aim of increasing public awareness of the immense value of parks and gardens and other designed landscapes as part of our local and national inheritance ... We run a series of lectures, visits and social events throughout the year, to which guests are always welcome. These can include visits to sites where public access is limited. We have garden visits throughout the year, spring and autumn lectures and a “Celebrity Lecture” at Leicester University.'
