Local garden centre decorates BBC set

 

The British Garden Centre Group have donated a selection of plants from their Coventry Garden Centre which were used to decorate the set of BBC Breakfast on Monday 21st June 2021 at their University Hospital Coventry & Warwickshire set up. 

 

Dan Walker presented the piece on Margaret Keenan, the first person to have a COVID-19 vaccine, live from University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust, which was set up in their staff outdoor wellbeing area. 

 

Professor Andy Hardy, Chief Executive Officer said, “University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust would like to thank the British Garden Centres Group for their support in the special broadcast of BBC Breakfast.

 

“We would like to recognise their generous donation of plants for the broadcast which will form an integral part of our outdoor staff wellbeing area.”

 

Boyd Douglas-Davies, Director of Communications at British Garden Centres said, “We were thrilled to work with both the BBC and the NHS on this project, creating a lovely set and back drop for the breakfast show particularly with them discussing such an important topic”. 

 

Coventry Garden Centre is a plant focused centre with an extensive selection of products and a dedicated team. The centre joined the family-owned British Garden Centres Group in 2019 and is proud to provide the local area of Coventry and Warwickshire with a first-class garden centre.
