Helmsley Walled Garden – Yorkshire
A great walled garden in the heart of beautiful Yorkshire countryside (I would say that being from Yorkshire myself!). Not only does it look great but it is run by the local community and offers a horticultural therapy service.
It is definitely worth a visit whether you are interested in horticultural therapy or not. However, save space for lunch at the vegetarian vine-house cafe where they use ingredients grown in the garden.
There is a small admission charge.
More about the garden and it’s horticultural therapy programme can be found here:Â http://www.helmsleywalledgarden.org.uk/horticultural-therapy/

Bit of a delay between postings but I am back it and came across this video playlist from the Therapeutic and Healing Landscape Design website.
The playlist includes videos from Chicago Botanic Garden, Healing Gardens at The Cheri Amore Garden of Hope, Illinois and the Henry Ford Hospital.
