The Glasshouse

The organisation behind The Glasshouse Garden at RHS Chelsea 2025, explains their mission and aims

The Glasshouse

It is an incredible opportunity to work with Jo Thompson and Project Giving Back to create a space where women in prison will start on a journey to change their lives and create their second chances. As the show garden is being relocated to a women’s prison, The Glasshouse can extend its work, training more women in all aspects of its horticulture business, providing award-winning interior plant design, installation and maintenance. Our current team of women have already learned so much from Jo as she’s planned the design of the garden and we look forward to growing our impact to benefit a new community of women working to change their future.

“The Glasshouse is a social enterprise offering second chances through horticultural training to women based in UK prisons. We harness the power of botanics to make work and living spaces greener, healthier and more inviting. Plants are proven to improve mental and physical wellbeing, increase creativity and concentration and remove toxins from the air.”
