Royal Trinity Hospice to open its award-winning gardens to visitors

Royal Trinity Hospice will open its award-winning gardens later this month, giving members of the public a rare opportunity to glimpse inside this otherwise private oasis in the heart of Clapham.

As part of the National Garden Scheme (NGS) Open Garden Weekend, which gives visitors unique access to over 3,500 exceptional gardens in Britain, Trinity will welcome guests into its two acres of grounds where patients enjoy an idyllic, therapeutic green space.
