Alan, who is also a best-selling author and the Chancellor of the University of Winchester, was pleased to hear that such a space is being planned for the hospice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful opportunity to have this space within the grounds of Winchester Hospice to create a place where patients and their loved ones can spend time together enjoying the outdoors,\u201d he said. \u201cGardens are an extension of any space, and having a garden is a vital part of hospice work. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hampshirehospitals.nhs.uk\/news-events\/news\/alan-titchmarsh-digs-plans-winchester-hospice?q=%2Fnews-events%2Fnews%2Falan-titchmarsh-digs-plans-winchester-hospice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">See more<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/winchester-and-district\/files\/2019\/04\/Winchester-Hospice.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3748\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/winchester-and-district\/files\/2019\/04\/Winchester-Hospice-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/winchester-and-district\/files\/2019\/04\/Winchester-Hospice-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/winchester-and-district\/files\/2019\/04\/Winchester-Hospice-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/winchester-and-district\/files\/2019\/04\/Winchester-Hospice-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/winchester-and-district\/files\/2019\/04\/Winchester-Hospice.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can hear all about the Hospice and the garden plans at our supper meeting on Monday 20 May.
