A GARDEN inspired by a Penpont boy won the RHS People’s Choice Award for most favoured ‘Small Show Garden’ at the Chelsea Flower Show last week.
The Burton Hall Garden Design team picked up the title for their ‘Down’s Syndrome Scotland Garden’.
Co-designer Duncan Hall said: “It means so much that our garden resonated with the public, and it was really heart-warming to listen to the charity volunteers involved in meaningful discussions about Down’s syndrome.
“We would like to thank everyone involved in this project – from our wonderful sponsors Project Giving Back, everyone at Down’s Syndrome Scotland, our contractor, our artisan collaborators, our plant nurseries, planting volunteers, suppliers and our long-suffering family who have supported us on this journey.
“And thank you to everyone who voted for us to crown us as winners of the RHS People’s Choice Award in our category! We are thrilled and just can’t believe it.”
