Chelsea Flower Show 2022

Award-winning garden designer, John Everiss, helped the RAF Benevolent Fund develop their garden display, earning a Silver Award at the Show.  It features a four-meter sculpture of a young pilot looking up at the sky; a moving tribute for all those who have served and continue to serve in the RAF.

The RAF Benevolent Fund hopes the garden will inspire others to reflect on their personal connections with the RAF, inviting famous faces to share their poignant stories during the Show. The garden also aims to promote the benefit gardening can have for mental health and wellbeing on the RAF workforce. 

‘Congratulations to the RAF Benevolent Fund for their success not only at the Show but in supporting mental health and opening conversations about our connections with the RAF.’ 

You can still visit the garden at its new home at London Biggin Hill Airport.
