In short: Broadcaster Konnie Huq and advocate Eleanor Stollery lead an immersive sensory tour of the Princess of Wales Conservatory at Kew Gardens. This initiative, part of a broader accessibility program, highlights how botanical spaces can be experienced beyond sight, offering inclusive ways to engage with nature.

The tour is a key component of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Community and Access Learning Programme. Facilitated by Abi Rhodes, the project aims to broaden accessibility through resources like BSL tours and dementia-friendly walks. The initiative is supported by players of the People’s Postcode Lottery and includes audio description by Roz Chalmers.

The Community Access Scheme further extends these opportunities to community groups located within the M25 area, ensuring that the conservatory's diverse plant life is accessible to a wider public audience.
