A toast to new friends!

Posted by Lindsey Churchill on December 20, 2012 at 5:12pm

I couldn't let 2012 slip by without expressing my personal thanks to all those who have supported Perennial over the last 12 months.

I was new to this network last year and watched from the sidelines for a bit feeling that maybe it was not my place to be amongst you. I then took the plunge & went to the network meeting in Birmingham and was made to feel so welcome & supported that I realised what a fantastic support network you have here.

Since then Phil and the LJN posse have supported what we do at Perennial both in awareness raising and fund raising and I know that there are LJN members who will be having a better Christmas because of it.

So have a great Christmas one & all, I hope I get to meet more of you in 2013.

    Hi Lindsey

    Thank you for such kind words.

    I too am pleased to have been able to support our industry peers. I'm also pleased to have helped raise awareness of the difficulties faced by many in what continue to be testing times.

    You and your colleagues do a sterling job and you should be rightly proud:)

    I hope you don't mind but I'd also like to pop a message on here to friends and colleagues who helped make this year's Mowerthon such a success. You all know who you are.

    Looking forward to doing something fresh next year:)

As to replacement I would not use Photinia it has a rather open habit and does…"
