Everywhere you look around the Carrick Hill house and grounds, you will see projects that have been supported by the Friends of Carrick Hill. Over the years, this volunteer group have generously contributed to a number of projects that enrich the visitor experience inside the house and out in the glorious gardens. From flowers to festivals, the Friends of Carrick Hill have contributed their time, money and effort, and we are delighted to celebrate thirty years with them. This exhibition in the Main Hall of the house reflects on their achievements and some of the wonderful and more quirky projects they have been involved in.
