The Garden Museum is fundraising to transform 5.3 acres adjacent to the museum into a new public park in central London, named Lambeth Green. Created in partnership with Lambeth Council and Transport for London, the new landscape will be designed by Dan Pearson, one of the world’s leading garden designers. A new pavilion designed by architect Mary Duggan will be used by our gardeners to maintain the new park, and to offer horticultural apprenticeships for young Londoners. With your help we can create a new park for our Lambeth community.

My daughter Lizzie and I will be swimming a mile and accompanying Christopher Woodward as he begins his 64 mile swim in aid of this project,
