Kathy was awarded an RHS silver medal for her design of a balcony garden at the London Plant and Design Show in February 2010. Her design focused on reusing waste plastic items and used plants that had been sourced from 25 miles of the exhibition hall. The judges were complimentary about her innovative use of plants and materials in her design. Kathy was assisted with the development and building of her balcony garden by Sarah Ball and Charlotte Wess.
