Patcham U3A has been linked with the Peace Garden for many years. Back in 1998 our Gardening Group decided to mark the Millennium by planting a tree. Details were obtained about Brighton & Hove Council’s Tree Donation scheme. Discussions took place and we decided to try to raise the Ł80 needed to plant a tree. The Council’s experts advised us that the most appropriate species would be a Whitebeam (Sorbus aria). All sorts of money raising activities followed and enough money was raised to buy two trees. These were planted on a wet Monday 6th December 1999 and the ceremony was attended by Councillors Geoffrey and Mrs Carol Theobold, the Rev. CLive Redknap (Minister of All Saints Church) and members of the Gardening Group. The silver spade was wielded by Pauline. (Contributed by Pauline & Michael)
