Dobbies Garden Centres has launched a brand-new charity bulb collection that aims to raise £10,000 for its National Charity Partner, Alzheimer’s Research UK, to fund up to 278 hours of scientists’ lab time. The new, limited-edition Sensory Garden 15 Bulbs Collection is now available nationwide, in store and online, as part of Dobbies’ activity to raise awareness of World Alzheimer’s Month.

£5 from each pack sold will be donated to Alzheimer’s Research UK to help raise funds to find a cure for dementia. Dobbies has raised almost £30,000 for Alzheimer’s Research UK since March 2025, through various fundraising activities. Itis also working with the charity to highlight the benefits of garden living for brain health.

'Vital funds for research'
Paul Glazier, head of corporate partnerships for Alzheimer’s Research UK, said: “If nothing changes, one in two of us will be directly affected by dementia – either by caring for someone with the condition, developing it ourselves, or both. At Alzheimer’s Research UK, we’re committed to finding a cure for dementia and Dobbies is helping us achieve this by raising vital funds for research.

 “We’re incredibly grateful to Dobbies for standing with us and we want to say thank you to everyone who buys a pack. We hope the bulbs bring colour and joy to gardens across the country.”
