The task was to create a calm outdoor space for an out-patient CAMHS unit at Kingsley Green in Radlett.
The garden was designed to offer choice and to provide opportunities to be creative and engage in social interaction. With a firm belief in the restorative qualities of nature, plants were of great importance to the design.
A meandering figure-of-eight path, cover from the canopies of large mature trees and a carpet of lush green foliage make up the main structure of the garden.
From barren ground the space was transformed into a small green oasis for service users and staff to enjoy.
Funds are currently being raised for the build of a therapeutic garden at Wedgwood House which is a mental health unit for adults located at West Suffolk Hospital, Bury St Edmunds.
