An idyllic Summer afternoon was had by all who visited the beautiful gardens at Gortnalee House, Donaghmore, Co. Laois on Sunday 19th July as Ms Hazel Luskin-Glennon opened her spectacular garden as a fundraiser for Laois Hospice. This event allowed the public an opportunity to view this hidden gem which offers a rare and beautiful collection of flowers, plants and trees so beautifully nurtured and maintained.

Those who attended enjoyed Hazel's informative guided tour of the gardens followed by afternoon tea and time to relax in the beautiful and peaceful surroundings.

Mr Seamus O'Donoghue, Chairperson Laois Hospice expressed his great appreciation to Ms Hazel Luskin-Glennon who so generously offered to share the splendour of her matured gardens with the public and donate all proceeds from this event to Laois Hospice. Laois Hospice are reliant on the community to help maintain and expand hospice services and would like to thank most sincerely all who supported this event.
