The creators of a North-East garden at the Chelsea Flower Show were hoping yesterday that judges would go with the flow and deliver a gold award when the results are announced today.

Gateshead Council and Northumbrian Water have combined to conjure up a garden on the theme that water is precious for health, wealth and life.

Jonsigns provided a range of built up stainless steel letters to be used in the silver award-winning installation illustrating water running to waste.
