A team of workers is currently getting it ready for a special garden party on June 6 which will feature entertainment, canapes and prosecco.
The global foundation wants to invite local people to the event, which runs from 3:30pm to 6:30pm, and is appealing for nominations. There will also be an opportunity to walk the Smith trail in the company of guide, George Proudfoot.
Nominations for invites should be sent to Paula Civilek at the foundation before May 22. Please email [email protected].
A panel will then pick the winners and invitations sent out.
