Graham Roberts, who plays Yorkshireman George Barford, the retired gamekeeper married to Christine Archer in the long-running soap, lives at Copmanthorpe and is keen to support the work of the hospice and its appeal for funds to finish its redevelopment project. This is the second plant sale that has been organised as a separate event. All kinds of herbaceous, herbs and bedding plants have been arriving at the hospice. I think we should get there early. The plant sale, with refreshments, runs from 10am to 2pm.
Admission is free.
