Motion text
That this House recognises the outstanding contribution of the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) to horticultural education and research at Wisley Gardens in Guildford; further recognises the important contribution the garden makes in terms of community engagement and events, leisure and health and wellbeing; notes with concern the current £6 million financial loss, predicted to total £11 million by 2026, that the National Highways A3/M25 roadworks are having on the Wisley Gardens and the RHS; and calls on the Government to engage with the charity and recognising this financial impact through compensation in order to safeguard for the future the RHS and its vital work.
