Great to be back for another year at the 2023 RHS - Royal Horticultural Society for their VIP & Press Preview Day on Monday.

Youth homelessness charity Centrepoint were fortunate to have secured Project Giving Back for a Show Garden to raise awareness of the 129,000 young people who were or were at risk of homelessness in the UK last year.

A first for Chelsea, I secured Vicky Pattison to do a 'Sleep Out' on the garden designed by Cleve West Landscape Design overnight last Sunday. This generated plenty of media coverage including on BBC Breakfast, BBC Radio Newcastle, Daily Mail, The Big Issue, London Evening Standard to name a few.

Keeley Hawes, Matthew Macfadyen, Lisa Maxwell & Neil Jones joined us for the official securing us coverage in titles including Good Housekeeping and OK! Magazine UK.

A day then engaging with the famous faces at the show saw visits from a range of well-known including the very lovely Luke Evans. With the help of the team and our photographer Rebekah Kennington, the Centrepoint Garden was visited by almost 50 names across the day.

Delighted to be working with the much-needed Centrepoint. The charity is asking us all to write to our MP to get them to call on the Government to commit to a proper strategy to tackle youth , something Centrepoint aspire to end by 2037.
