Lockdown has put paid to physical visits this year, but officials at the Hall have come up with the next best thing – a virtual tour of the snowdrop-strewn parkland, which has been proving a hit and raising funds at the same time.

“The snowdrops this year are nothing short of spectacular and we are so sorry people can’t be here to see them,” said Hall general manager Peter Anthony.

"We decided to take them to the public – to raise funds for the upkeep of our rescue animals in the Animal Hub and the Friends of the Hall group who have received almost nothing over the course of the past year, with fund-raising virtually impossible."

“We really hope people enjoy the informative video tour, and are inviting a small donation to help ensure the great work will carry on behind the scenes.”

“A huge thanks to our horticultural expert John Hornyak, and to Phil Downie for his fabulous videography."
