Andy Sturgeon is this months guest speaker. He has been named one of the UK’s top ten landscape designers by both the Sunday Times and House and Garden Magazine. He has won 6 Gold medals at the prestigious RHS Chelsea Flower Show and also ‘Best in Show’ in 2010.
This year Andy has won gold at RHS Chelsea and at the Singapore Garden Festival.
