A STUNNING RHS Chelsea Flower Show garden will be relocated to RSPCA Stapeley Grange wildlife centre in Cheshire this summer.

The RSPCA exhibited the inspiring wildlife garden at the prestigious flower show, thanks to generous funding from Project Giving Back.

As part of the project, at the end of the event, the garden will be relocated to RSPCA Stapeley Grange, one of the charity’s wildlife rehabilitation and education centres for visitors to enjoy the living legacy for years to come.

Chester and District Standard:

‘The RSPCA Garden’ at the Chelsea Flower Show was a celebration of the RSPCA’s 200th anniversary, as well as the benefits of being immersed in nature - a sanctuary for wildlife and people alike.

The Project Giving Back scheme has granted the RSPCA a fully-funded garden at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, giving the country’s oldest animal welfare charity a unique opportunity for charities to raise awareness and support for its cause at the world’s most famous horticultural event, and encourages the relocation of the gardens so they can live on beyond the show.

Hannah Norris, education officer at RSPCA Stapeley Grange said: “Educating people about helping wildlife is at the heart of what we do, and we are thrilled that we’re going to have a stunning show garden given to us to help boost our work and encourage a whole generation of wildlife champions.

"On top of our current offering of education programmes, which includes our interactive ‘classroom,’ our woodland and campfire and our wildlife rehabilitation courses, this garden will provide us with a brand new and completely unique feature.

Chester and District Standard:

"It’s a wonderful way to kick-start the RSPCA’s birthday celebrations and mark the start of the next generation of animal welfare work.”

The garden will be relocated to the RSPCA’s education hub at Stapeley Grange Wildlife Centre in Nantwich, in June.

Teams will then spend time making sure the plants are repotted, planted, and features such as the rill and bird boxes installed, in time for the charity’s 200th anniversary celebrations in 2024.
