April has been a very busy time with the handover of the Scampston Conservatory from the contractors William Birch and final fitting out work. This has included fitting external blinds, benches for plants, screens / audio visual equipment and exhibition panels.

Benches for plants in the hot house have been installed and a range of plants have started to arrive to provide a wonderful display for visitors in the hot-house. Several new volunteers helped with installing the plants after a recent volunteer training morning.
