Morley and Outwood MP to open South Leeds Garden Centre

Directors at a Yorkshire garden centre group have invited a local MP to open their new garden centre next month.

Morley and Outwood MP Andrea Jenkyns will cut the ribbon to celebrate the official opening of Tingley Garden Centre, one of four owned by Yorkshire Garden Centres, at 12 pm on 22^nd April.

Yorkshire Garden Centres MD Mark Farnsworth is looking forward to showing Ms Jenkyns around the new centre: “Although we opened the doors at the end of September, it was always our intention to formally open the centre in the spring and celebrate the gardening season.  We are delighted that Andrea has taken time out of her busy schedule to come and cut the ribbon for us.

“To celebrate the official opening, we are giving all customers a pack of vouchers which they can redeem throughout May and June.  We have also put together a range of exclusive offers for the whole of the official opening weekend, so all our visitors have the opportunity to join in the celebrations.”

Ms Jenkyns and invited local ward councillors will enjoy a tour of the centre and refreshments in the Garden Room Restaurant after the ribbon has been cut.

Tingley Garden Centre employs over 250 people and is home to a 1000m² plant canopy, a 300-seater Blooms Kitchen, Grass Hoppers indoor and outdoor play, Mission Out Epic Adventure, Hearty’s Food Hall and a botanically themed restaurant, The Garden Room, that serves lunch and Afternoon Teas for 140 guests.

The Yorkshire Garden Centres family comprises Tong, Tingley, Otley and Bingley Garden Centres.
