The story of the global dermatological partnership which supports Burmese healthcare workers treating adults and children with skin conditions is told throughout Helen Olney’s naturalistic garden design. Inside the space, a traditional Burmese stilt house constructed from recycled timber offers a lovely view of a cascading waterfall, whilst other areas of the garden are reclaimed and overgrown by foliage, a symbolic illustration of the disrupted environments that the charity operates in.
