COURSES & EVENTS

We organise training and networking opportunities through workshops and courses on garden design and horticultural related topics.

​

Gillian is a great believer in team work, inclusivity and in helping others. This ethos is core to the training and development we offer.  Where possible, we make contributions to chosen charities such as Perennial - The Gardeners’ Benevolent Society, Veterans’ Growth, and Horatio’s Garden from the proceeds of ticket sales.

​

Our training days are open to all:  some will require an existing degree of technical expertise; some will also appeal to keen amateurs; and others to beginners, advanced designers and related professionals.  All will be delivered by highly regarded speakers who are experts in their field.

​

We are proud to support The People Place and Nature Podcast, which follows an open conversation format featuring a wide range of guests from scientists, engineers, researchers and individuals leading the way when it comes to tackling our environmental challenges.  

 

Hosted by Niall Williams, a Landscape Architect and Director of ND Landscape Architects (where Gillian is their Principal Garden and Landscape Designer), the podcast aims to bring together experts from across the environmental world covering everything from renewable energies, architecture, horticulture and ecology.  

 

Many of the subjects have special relevance to those interested in our courses, either to gain a deeper understanding of ecological systems, trees and plants, changing design trends, landscape design and considerations and other topics which may impact planning, such as water neutrality, renewable energy generation, green infrastructure and other topics. ​

 

Please contact us for more information about any of the courses and events listed, or if you would like to be added to our mailing list for future courses and events.  There may also be the opportunity to arrange tailored training courses.
