Perennial Launches 'Project PGP – Partner Get Partner' Initiative with Regional Networking Events Across the UK

Each year, Perennial provides practical, financial and emotional support and advice to horticulturists and their families facing illness, bereavement, financial hardship or other life-changing challenges. As demand for these services continues to grow, the charity is expanding its network of industry partners to ensure it can continue to be there for those who need it most.

As part of this initiative, Perennial is hosting a series of informal regional networking events, open to BALI members, at which attendees can learn more about the charity's work and discover how becoming a Perennial Partner benefits both the industry and the individuals within it.

Events will take place at the following venues:

• Fullers Mill Garden, Suffolk – 9 June 2026

• Wright Landscapes, Cheshire – 2 July 2026

• The Glasshouse, Surrey – 14 July 2026

• York Gate Garden, Yorkshire – 21 July 2026

Each gathering will run for approximately two to three hours and will bring together existing Perennial Partners and prospective partners for an engaging and relaxed networking experience. The events are complimentary to attend, with a small charge per person to cover catering costs - ensuring that core budgets remain focused on the individuals and families the charity exists to support.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to find out more about becoming a Perennial Partner on the day.

Additional dates for the diary include Perennial's Dig Deep Lunch in London on Friday 9 October 2026, and the much-anticipated Perennial Partners Pies & Pints on 28 January 2027.

BALI members are encouraged to attend whichever event is most convenient for them.
