The Gardens for Good Causes Exhibition celebrates the gardens, created by designers such as Tom Stuart-Smith, Tom Massey, Ula Maria, Miria Harris and Matthew Childs, which were supported by Project Giving Back (PGB) at this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show. The exhibition also highlights the work of the charities that benefitted from PGB support in 2024 including the National Autistic Society, WaterAid and Sue Ryder.
Launched in May 2021, Project Giving Back (PGB) is the vision of two private individuals keen to support a wide range of charitable causes whose work suffered during the Covid-19 pandemic and continues to be affected by the economic downturn and cost-of-living crisis. The grant-making scheme gives UK-based charities and other charitable organisations the chance to apply for a fully-funded garden at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, subject to the usual RHS selection process. PGB grants cover the garden, transport and accommodation for essential staff.
All the RHS Chelsea gardens supported by PGB will live on after the show and have now been, or are in the process of moving to their permanent locations around the UK as a lasting legacy for their individual good causes. 2026 will be the final year of PGB funding for RHS Chelsea Flower Show gardens.
The Gardens for Good Causes exhibition takes place in the Garden Museum in London, the exhibition will be held from the 13th – 29th of September.
