Theme of the Day:Gratitude

In line with the theme for the Founder’s Day this year, Gratitude, Friends of Dulwich has designed an activity about flowers. Have a look at the FoD activity below for this time.

It’s a special opportunity to express your gratitude to those who matter most. What you need to do is scan this QR code, leave your information, pick up the flower at the FoD booth, and pay with a coupon. All expenses will go into designated charity projects.

Our Flower Kits are carefully curated with the "Gratitude" themed cards for the Founder’s Day, designed to convey your heartfelt sentiments. Join us in spreading love and appreciation this Founder's Day – we look forward to seeing you here.
