Sunflower Club

Welcome to the NurtureStore and Have a Lovely Time 2011 Sunflower Challenge!


Come and join in the fun, growing sunflowers with your children and helping raise funds for the work of the Compton Hospice. There’s a free e-book for everyone taking part, full of ideas to transform your sunflower growing into a fun and learning project, and fabulous prizes on offer for the tallest sunflowers.

You can enter as a family or as a school or group.

Here’s how to take part:

How to enter:

1. Donate a minimum* of £2** to our JustGiving page. * Any more is most welcome, if you aren’t feeling the pinch already at a couple of quid.

2. Register online at Compton’s website, and email Katie Love at Compton Hospice (katielove[at]compton-hospice.org.uk) quoting your JustGiving reference number, telling her your name and address so that she can send you a packet of seeds. (Everyone needs the same seeds to see who does the best with them…)

3. With the help of Katie’s information pack and NurtureStore’s Sunflower Activity e-book, grow your sunflower, measure it and tell us all about your success to be in with a chance of winning a prize.

4. Take a picture of you and yours with your blooming sunflowers so we can share your progess with readers of Have a Lovely Time and Nurturestore.

5. Spread the word about the Sunflower Challenge by adding our badge to your blog and inviting your friends and readers to come and join in too.
