Each Horatio’s Garden is carefully designed by a designer and architect with specialist teams to be accessible and sustainable. Everything is of exceptional quality to be long lasting in the high use setting.
It costs £100,000 a year to care for each of the gardens. This includes the part-time salaries of the garden teams, training and recruiting volunteers, garden maintenance such as plants and compost, the arts programme activities and refreshments for the garden room.
“The difference that Horatio’s Garden has made to me is immense. The garden is so full of life that it gives you hope. It’s helped with my wellbeing and with my recovery. I don’t know where I’d be without it.”
