Dose of Nature Sensory Garden opened at York House


Recently, we opened our beautiful Dose of Nature Sensory Garden in the stunning grounds of York House in Twickenham. The Mayor, Councillor Geoff Acton, cut the ribbon, declaring the garden open and available for the community to enjoy. On this gloriously warm summer afternoon, guests explored the planting which has been cleverly designed to intrigue our five senses, sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste. You can visit this beautiful space to relax and unwind, and learn about how spending time in nature can have a positive effect on our psychological and physiological wellbeing.
