Remember Great Dixter in your Will
The Conservation Project

Urgent! Funds Needed

Your support will ensure the preservation of Christopher Lloyd’s iconic garden and historic house. The Great Dixter Charitable Trust is committed to maintaining the site as an innovative centre for horticulture and plantsmanship.

In May 2009 the Trust was successful in raising funding to acquire the 60% share in the estate outside their ownership. With a further generous donation they were also able to buy Nathaniel Lloyd’s Dixter farm buildings.

Now work has started on a major capital project to carry out essential repairs to the buildings, to conserve and catalogue the Lutyens and Lloyd archive and house collections and set up educational facilities. The project will be carried out in a sympathetic way that ensures the sustainability of Great Dixter without compromising its essential character.

Over £4 million has already been raised for the work and repairs to the north front have now taken place, An Education Officer and Archivist have also been appointed.
However, £350,000 is still needed and we would be grateful for further support in securing this.
There are many ways that you can help. Thank you!
