Homeless on display at Chelsea

September 26 2009
Homeless men and women show their green fingers at the Flower Show Homeless men and women from across the UK have been given the chance to use their green fingers at this year's Chelsea Flower Show. More than 20 homeless agencies were involved in creating the show garden, from growing seedlings to designing, creating and maintaining the plot in the West London site. The project, entitled The Key, was a collaboration between Homeless Link, the Homes and Communities Agency, the Department for Communities and Local Government and the Eden Project, and featured a pathway made of old discarded keys donated from cutting shops across the UK. It was hoped participation would inspire a sense of growth in the gardeners and help to break cycle of social exclusion. The Chelsea Flower show ran from 19th-23rd May 2009.
