Boulders intersect the first section of path, illustrating that the journey of an individual out of homelessness onto a healthier and happier life course often features obstacles. The bench and pergola are a sheltered resting place, with the water feature providing an opportunity for reflection. The planting reflects an abandoned, or regenerating, moist garden in the shade of cutleaf alder (Alnus glutinosa) and hazel trees (Corylus avellana). The herbaceous planting relies primarily on shades of green and foliage texture but also has subtle colour throughout. The Pathway Garden is designed using only upcycled materials. The bench is made from a large boule of a fallen tree and the mycelium wall is made from recycled waste material from the RHS 2024 Shows. Mycelium evokes nature’s networks and pathways below the ground, and the fact that individuals supported back to good health and a secure home often in turn become good supporters, working with others to help our communities create lasting positive change and thrive into the future.
