'Seeing the community come together has been the heart of the garden'

When Jason Williams decided to transform the balcony of his 18th-floor apartment into a stunning garden oasis, little did he imagine that his passion for green spaces would extend to revitalising a ginnel in Moss Side.

Explaining his choice of location, Jason said: “We chose Newlyn Street because this particular ginnel has more transient members and less permanent residents due to being a student-populated area. Because of this, core gardeners are struggling to maintain it, and I want to help them get this space together.”

Williams will further showcase his innovative approach to urban gardening at the RHS's new Urban Show , departing from the conventional outdoor format of RHS shows to take root entirely indoors within the industrial expanse of a former railway at Depot Mayfield. These are not show gardens, they are learning exhibits designed to teach residents, local authorities, retail and developers how we can all improve to make our towns and cities greener.”

The winners would receive an invitation to attend the opening day of the new RHS Urban Show on 18 April and a pub garden designed by Emma Tipping, a former RHS Young Designer of the Year contender and Chelsea Flower Show Gold Medal Winner.
