Next month, a garden inspired by people living with Parkinson's disease will be installed at a major hospital here in the UK.

A garden for every Parkinson's journey was designed by Arit Anderson, who invited other gardeners who have the disease and their loved ones to help bring it to life.

Arit told me the reasons why she wanted to create it.

And is there anything that you've incorporated that's specific to your sister's experience of Parkinson's?

What do you want people to think and feel when they see this garden?

How does it feel to use your sister as inspiration?

One of the gardeners who worked on it is Anna Edwards.

I spoke to her and started by asking her about the specific features of the garden.

It's got sort of several areas that are really important and it partly reflects that it's a disease that is sort of manifold.

There's about 40 symptoms people can have and everyone's got their individual journey with this.

For me, I think one of the most important areas is the handrail.

Another part of the garden is a shelter, beautifully designed.

And the idea really behind that is very much that a lot of people with Parkinson's, their sleep is very much impacted.

They sleep really badly.

And the shelter is somewhere where people can use that garden at night.

I would love people to understand why some of the features are as they are and to get a chance to explain that and show that to them.

But it's beauty as well as the message of more understanding about Parkinson's as a disorder, how complicated it is.

I had a big mental health crisis sort of about a year into my diagnosis, which came out of nowhere really and hit me like crazy.

a ton of bricks.

And that was a time where I was very depressed, very anxious.
