FORTHCOMING FRIENDS EVENTS

2020 was our 20th Anniversary and we had planned to be celebrating our part in the Mansion’s past and hoped you would have joined us for events to be part of its future. It was not to be. Keep an eye on our events page and the Valentines Mansion & Gardens event page to make sure you don’t miss out when events can resume at this beautiful house. Till then stay safe.

If you want to find out about the Friends.  We meet every 3rd Tuesday in the month at the Gardeners Cottage Café from 11.00 a.m.

Coffee mornings will resume when possible. If visiting park Gardeners Cottage Cafe is still open for takeaway orders.

What we do

The Friends was set up in 2000 to raise awareness of the Mansion and its potential to the local community, and to raise funds for restoration projects. We continue supporting and enjoying this lovely place  in various ways, holding fund-raising events, giving talks, and helping in the house as Volunteers.

Some of the money raised has been spent on acquiring beautiful items for the Mansion – the Victorian dining table in the Holcombe Room, and the table, chairs and mirror in the Regency Parlour. Our current project is to furnish the Raymond Room to reflect the period when Sir Charles Raymond owned Valentines, in the second half of the 18th century.

How do I receive the Friends’ Newsletter?

 

To receive the newsletter become a Friend. Membership will also keep you involved in this wonderful building, informed about developments at the Mansion and give you the opportunity to book for our events at reduced rates.
