Chris Beardshaw

Broadcaster Chris Beardshaw will be linking up with the charity Groundwork UK to promote gardening and greening up our towns and cities. This is one of a series of gardens Chris is designing for all the 2012 RHS flower shows - the idea is to focus minds on not just gardens, but all the green space around us in our urban environments.

Chris Beardshaw said: 'The green space around us - where we live and work - has a fundamental effect on our emotions and behaviour. It is well documented that in areas where these spaces are neglected and poorly designed we see strong evidence of social unrest'.

Groundwork UK is a national regeneration charity who will exhibit at RHS Cheslea Flower Show in May of this year.
