Say what you like about The Dock, we give you plenty of chances to exercise your green fingers…

If you’re not too tired from watering the plants in the Prayer Garden or helping to rake sand and earth for the Wish project (aka The Face From Space), you now get to be part of a massive daffodil-planting extravaganza at the green area surrounding SS Nomadic.

The daffs are being planted by the team from Marie Curie Cancer Care (that’s them in the pic on the left) to raise funds for their amazing work; many will be planted in memory of someone who was helped by the organisation.

When they spring into life next Spring, the whole area around Dock Cafe and SS Nomadic will be a sea of yellow (appropriately enough, the ‘Titanic colour’ – check out Titanic’s funnels, Titanic Quarter Ltd’s logo and – of course – the ‘O’ in the Dock logo!)

But the planting is an open invitation to all – so get yer wellies on and call down to join us on Friday 18th.  Dock coffees are on the house for everyone involved!
