\"\"<\/p>\n

Over the festive season each year, Grosvenor Square in the heart of Mayfair is lit up with over 30,000 illuminated white roses.<\/p>\n

People are invited to dedicate a rose in memory of a loved one, whilst making a donation in support of The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, but hurry as the garden closes tonight (Weds 18th Dec 2024).<\/p>\n

About the garden<\/h4>\n

Since first opening in 2019, the Ever After Garden has raised over \u00a3870,000 for The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.<\/p>\n

Royal Marsden Cancer Charity Trustee and designer Dame Anya Hindmarch said:<\/p>\n

“The Ever After Garden was born out of the need to pay tribute to those we have lost during the year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It was an idea originally conceived with Camilla Morton in memory of Michael Howells and is named after the film for which he designed the sets.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However this garden should be personal to everyone. For me, it is also in memory of my Aunt Elizabeth Hindmarch.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My wish is for this to be a place to reflect at Christmas in amongst all the festive cheer, and in doing so raise money for the incredible institution that is The Royal Marsden.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
