Kate was hugely active in the community – supporting people, designing and creating beautiful spaces
and connecting people with Nature. Her ground breaking work with Young Unaccompanied Asylum Seekers
at Barracks Lane Community Garden (the Heritage of Common Plants) and at NaturEscape Florence Park
are testament to her care and passion for people, plants, creatures and simply for life!
