HighGround goes to Chelsea!

May 11, 2017

HighGround are delighted to be supporting Miracle-Gro as they create their ‘Come to your Senses’ garden in the Great Pavilion of the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

In what is thought to be the first project of its kind at the world’s most famous flower show, a team of current and former patients, volunteers and staff from HighGround will spend three days creating Miracle Gro’s ‘Come to your Senses’ garden.

Miracle Gro has been a long-standing supporter of HighGround’s work at Headley Court. Anna Baker Cresswell, the charity’s founder said, “Miracle Gro’s loyal and generous support has helped us deliver more than 4,000 treatment sessions to over 1,100 patients, and the opportunity to help the company spread the message of horticultural therapy through its garden was too good to miss. As we fight to raise the funds to ensure the horticultural therapy service will continue once Headley Court moves to its new home in the Midlands in 2018, we salute our wonderful friends at Miracle Gro.”

You can read the more about the garden and horticultural therapy in the full press release.
