Wish you were here? £200k raised at open garden event
Bath Chronicle
|June 19, 2025
The stunning home of Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason and his wife Annette was the venue for an event that raised an amazing £200,000 for two charities.
-
The record fundraising total was generated at the 2025 Middlewick House Open Garden event, and will be split between The Wiltshire Bobby Van Trust and Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance Charity.
More than 15,000 people visited the stunning home of Nick and Annette during the weekend event.
The money generated from this year’s event is enough to keep Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance flying for an entire week.
It will also help fund an operator’s work in the community for The Wiltshire Bobby Van Trust, which protects the elderly and the vulnerable, for an entire year.
Visitors to the picturesque surroundings were able to walk around the stunning walled garden, browse various stalls run by local traders, as well as enjoying something to eat and drink from the barbecue and cafe.
