Maggie's Gardens

Maggie's at The Royal Marsden

The garden surrounding the centre is designed by the world-famous Dutch Landscape Architect Piet Oudolf, who envisioned a dynamic landscape. The garden is divided into four interconnected zones. Piet has carefully chosen the plants according to how much sun each zone receives. We have the shaded, woodland, spring and summer zones, creating a powerful experience for the eyes. Opens 17th April.

Maggie's West London

The garden at Maggie’s West London was designed by Dan Pearson OBE in 2008. It is now a well established space offering therapy and peace to those affected by cancer each year. The gardens surround the vivid orange walls of the centre. The path leading to the centre meanders through scented beds and mature trees. Visitors have access to various courtyards with a wonderful array of flora, grapevines and even a mature pink silk mimosa. Opens Sunday 31st May.

Maggie's, Newcastle Upon Tyne

The garden (recently enlarged), by Chelsea medal winner, Sarah Price, is a sheltered sun trap. Banked wildflower beds and multiple planters, with seasonal displays, at ground level, plus two roof gardens. This gives a choice of outside spaces for visitors to enjoy. Copper beech, cherry blossom, crocus, bulbs, wildflowers and herbs give a colourful seasonal planting palette. A tranquil oasis. Gardener available to give a brief explanation of the garden and its design. Opens Saturday 11th July.

Maggie's Manchester

The architecture of Maggie’s Manchester, designed by world-renowned architect Lord Foster, is complemented by gardens designed by Dan Pearson, Best in Show winner at Chelsea Flower Show. Combining a rich mix of spaces, inc the working glasshouse and vegetable garden, the garden provides a place for both activity and contemplation. The colours and sensory experience of nature becomes part of the Centre through micro gardens and internal courtyards, which relate to the different spaces within the building.
