Gold medal garden for Cambridgeshire hospital
A gold medal-winning garden from this year's Chelsea Flower Show is set to be relocated to a hospital site in Cambridge.
Hertfordshire's Tom Stuart-Smith scooped the top accolade for his woodland-themed National Garden Scheme garden.
His creation will eventually take pride of place at Maggie's, a cancer support unit operating at the Addenbrooke's Hospital site in Cambridge.
Mr Stuart-Smith said his vision was that his garden would offer hope, and help people "to feel that [the] garden is opening out - and has got a future".
One of those to visit his new Chelsea creation on Monday was Queen Camilla, who is the president of Maggie’s.
The charity's chief executive, Dame Laura Lee, said: "Aren't we so lucky... that we're going to get this wonderful garden. Gardens offer hope, they offer a place that you want to be in."
