City Hospice has teamed up with Timpson for a second year to provide a special touch to Forever Flowers.
Forever Flowers provides the public with a unique means to celebrate life and remember cherished family members, friends, colleagues and loved ones. The limited-edition tributes will feature in a special display within the grounds of Cardiff Castle from Saturday 5 August to Sunday 13 August.
This year’s Forever Flower is a daisy which for many symbolises love, hope and new dawns and the charity is inviting people to Dedicate a Daisy to remember a loved one.
The flowers will be available to collect during the final two days of the display. Supporters will be able to have their Forever Flower engraved after the display at a significantly reduced cost at participating Timpson stores on St Mary Street, Culverhouse Cross and Asda Coryton, Cardiff.
Timpson was founded in 1865 by William Timpson in Manchester. Initially selling shoes, it later expanded into shoe manufacturing in 1884 and repairs in 1903. By 1960, Timpson had opened 260 shoe repair shops.
The company later introduced key cutting in the 1960s and then launched many other services such as engraving, watch repairs, dry cleaning and photo processing over the next few decades. Today, there are more than 2000 stores of the family run business across the UK.
Daniel Phelan, Mobile Manager at Timpson, said:
“Timpson is proud to support City Hospice’s Forever Flowers campaign for a second year. After learning more about the work of City Hospice from last years’ campaign, we were really touched by the impact the charity has on the community. We are delighted to be able to provide supporters with a special edition to remember their loved ones. Seeing the bank in Cardiff Castle covered in a sea of Sunflowers last year was beautiful. We can’t wait to see the daisies bloom across the castle and we would encourage everyone to get involved and support such an amazing cause.”
