I head up the Environmental Horticulture team at RHS Wisley, overseeing scientists and technicians with expertise in plants, soils, climate change and water. I guide the scientific and strategic direction of the group, aligning with the broader Science strategy of the RHS, striving to ensure that the research we do has relevance and impact, and supporting RHS members with advice on how to adapt to and mitigate against a changing climate, while gardening in an environmentally sustainable way.
