The RHS Campaign for School Gardening works with schools and groups to help children and young people to experience the power of plants. Through free resources, projects and guidance, our work has shown that the direct benefits of gardening are wide ranging:\n\n\n\t- Improves physical and mental wellbeing
\n\t- Builds life skills such as confidence, resilience, teamwork and communication
\n\t- Enriches the entire curriculum from science, maths and geography – to art, design and languages
\n\t- Teaches about the environment and the importance of biodiversity and sustainability

School visits to our RHS Gardens give young people valuable opportunities to get involved in practical horticulture, art and science - bringing the curriculum to life in an inspiring setting.\n\nTeachers can bring innovation and creativity to their lessons, enabling students to get 'hands-on' with horticulture and feel immersed in their lessons.

\nIf you feel able to support our important educational work this would be much appreciated; we ask you to consider a small potential donation per child.
