Our gardens Situated just off Clapham Common, our two-acre gardens provide a tranquil outside space for our patients and families to take some time to relax and unwind. "Mum noticed the garden when she first arrived at Trinity, she was passionate about flowers – it was such a green haven of tranquillity" Susan Macdonald, whose mother Margaret Kaye was cared for by Trinity Trinity’s gardens span two acres and include an ornamental pond, perennials and mixed flower beds. There are at least 50 different kinds of shrubs, a collection of fruit trees, specimen magnolias, and lots of wildlife. There are three main gardens with lots of different areas to explore. The West gardens behind the café, the East gardens on the far side of the Inpatient Unit (IPU) and the front gardens. The café terrace has pots full of seasonal plants where you can sit and view our wonderful gardens. On your left, the steps take you down past the cascading water feature. The sloping path takes you down into the West gardens, passing lawns and borders and ends up by the pond with our friendly carp and our glass house. We use the large glasshouse to grow plants from seeds and cuttings. Some of these plants go back into our gardens and some plants we sell at our open days for our lovely supporters to take home with them. If you continue on the path past our mulberry tree, walk down the steps and turn left it leads you to the East gardens past the ledge garden. Here is where we have the hives for our bees. In 2023, we received two donations that we used to renovate the beds either side of the IPU and to add shrubs with autumn colour, which include Cornus, Euonymus, Callicarpa, Berberis and Viburnum. Our gardens are looked after by our Head Gardener and a team of volunteers, who, since 2022, have added lots of new perennials to the gardens, which include Cerinthe, Centaurea, Digitalis, Echium, Geum, Hesparis, and Verbena. You can come and explore our gardens throughout the year at Open Garden events, or whenever you are visiting the hospice.
