Award-winning Garden Designer Paul Hervey-Brookes is again working on the RNIB Talking Books garden which will feature in its design the play out of extracts from a number of chosen Authors books. RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey was joined by Best-selling Crime Writer Lynda La Plante who has recorded an extract from ‘Buried’, the first book in her Jack Warr series for the RNIB Talking Books garden to find out why she has chosen a very descriptive passage from the novel along with her thoughts on why it is so important for books to be made accessible to blind and partially sighted people. The RHS Sandringham Flower Show 2026 featuring the RNIB Talking Books garden designed by Paul Hervey-Brookes that includes an extract from ‘Buried’ read by Lynda La Plante and supported by players of the Postcode Lottery is on from 22 to 26 July.
