£22,000 fundraising campaign launched for Ripon Walled Garden
The charity that runs Ripon Walled Garden has launched a £22,000 fundraising campaign to buy new facilities for the disabled people it helps.
Ripon Community Link, which provides day support services for people with learning difficulties, operates from two sites in the city area — St Wilfrid’s Bungalow and Ripon Walled Garden.

The building, which includes four classrooms, a reception and toilets, has already been paid for by grants and donations.
