Will the club listen to the majority of posts here and elsewhwere about value for money to members? We need to slim HO in these hard times, reduce costs and put savings back into basic services. Too many gimmicks with Chelsea Show, Fancy packs, Bio diversity etc. What we need is better site pricing,better facilities and less spin.

Yet more Marketing Department-speak.

You don't get a Chelsea Garden for peanuts. It may not have been a six-figure sum, but it will certainly have been a high five-figure one. That's OUR money you're throwing around.

I agree must be great throwing other peoples money about, that money could have been used to open another site, or for a wardens pay rise, membership fee reduction.

Well done to the Club . We as caravanners should be proud to say that we had a garden exhibited at the Chelsea Flower show and that it got a silver gilt award. Think how many visitors will have been to the show and how many people will have seen our garden. What a fantastic way to advertise caravanning and to have a holiday in good old Blighty.....even if it has been raining for at least two months!

There's just no pleasing some people .
