Horatio’s
Garden

The garden is designed to provide outdoor spaces for socialising and interactive activities that patients with acute spinal injuries would otherwise not be able to undertake. The multi-disciplinary team included award winning garden designer Andy Sturgeon Design and the space is located within a courtyard at Musgrave Park Hospital. It includes aesthetic and functional planting areas which can be maintained by the patients as part of their therapies. The garden is operated by the Horatio’s Garden charity alongside volunteer staff. The scheme is one of a number of other similar projects that the charity have commissioned around the United Kingdom.
