The National Garden Scheme at RHS Chelsea
The RHS Chelsea garden illustrates and embodies the enjoyment and sense of discovery that the National Garden Scheme offers to visitors by welcoming them to gardens, as well as the quality and variety of gardens that have always been a hallmark of the charity. The garden also emphasises the community activity which is a vital part of the National Garden Scheme. By celebrating volunteers and visitors, the garden also links with the people helped by the National Garden Scheme’s charitable donations (total £70 million), which have provided vital and cumulative funding for its nursing and health beneficiaries for nearly one hundred years.
