Gold medal winner

This garden takes you on a journey that represents freedom from the symptoms of Overactive Bladder (OAB), a condition that affects more than seven million adults in the UK. Reaching over the troubled water, a bright and vibrant bridge provides a pathway for those suffering from OAB. The bridge symbolises relief and freedom through the help that is available to manage the condition.
The garden’s whirlpool water feature symbolises a distressing and unpredictable need to relieve the bladder, which can lead people with OAB to feel isolated, depressed and alone. Drawing the eye upwards out of the mire, a tree-lined bridge offers the pathway to freedom, allowing people with OAB to live life the way they choose.
Double success for Bridge Over Troubled Water, the People's Choice winner in the Show Gardens category.
