Money raised will be split between Alzheimers Research UK and a charity helping support people living with Usher syndrome, a rare, inherited disorder that causes vision loss, hearing loss and balance issues.

Maps for the garden trail can be collected from Edgmond Village Hall, where there will be charity stalls selling knitwear, bric a brac and plants.
