It’s @place2becharity.bsky.social Children’s Mental Health Week and a great opportunity for me to say that I’ll be creating a new wellbeing garden at Wildern School in Hampshire for staff and students to enjoy 🌱🧠❤️

Mayfield Garden Centre is Back! 🌿✨

Thrilled to attend the grand reopening of Mayfield Garden Centre (part of @solentmind) after its two-month revamp!

Every visit supports mental health programmes like gardening for dementia & youth services.

How fantastic is this willow pony?

I had it made for my show garden earlier in the year ❤️

Just visited a social housing complex in Antwerp that blew me away. Thoughtful design of buildings and green space plus a layout that actually builds community!

Proof that housing for all doesn’t have to mean compromising on quality or dignity.

This is the ankerwycke yew

I proposed under this tree and apparently Henry VIII did too.

It’s at least 1,400 years old and is said to have been witness to the sealing of Magna Carta 😮

I made a dried flower wreath for the festive season.

It was my second rodeo, what do you think?

🌱✨ Just wrapped up an inspiring talk to colleagues at Network Rail for #internationalmensday about my mental health journey, benefits of gardening for wellbeing & tackling imposter syndrome!

Sharing my experience is always nerve-wracking but rewarding

Today, my daughter and I took a moment to connect with the world around us — one tree hug at a time. 🌳❤️

It’s not just about the trees; it’s about grounding ourselves, slowing down, and teaching the next generation to cherish the natural world 🌍💚

Up close shot of the planting at my Burnaby Close redevelopment earlier this year. ❤️🌸

I designed a new, vibrant outdoor space in a previously unloved patch of ground in the heart of a local community.
