Sue Biggs is the Director General of the Royal Horticultural Society.
She’s been at the helm of the RHS since 2010 and during that time, its membership has grown to more than half a million people. The RHS is also renowned for its spectacular flower shows and garden festivals around the country, including Chelsea, Hampton Court, Chatsworth House and Tatton Park. Sue has had a lifelong love of gardening since her mum gave her a packet of seeds on her seventh birthday.
She has enjoyed two very successful careers. Before her tenure at the RHS, she worked in the travel industry for 25 years, identifying new destinations for holidaymakers. She was the first woman to be appointed to the board of Kuoni Travel.
In her current role, she strongly believes that horticultural work and expertise do not receive the wider respect they deserve. She was made a CBE in 2017 for her services to the environment and ornamental horticulture industries.
BOOK CHOICE: The Book of Joy
LUXURY ITEM: A bed
CASTAWAY'S FAVOURITE: The Lark Ascending by Ralph Vaughan Williams

她自2010年起掌舵英国皇家园艺协会,在此期间,其会员人数已增加到50多万。RHS也因其在全国各地举办的壮观的花展和花园节而闻名,包括切尔西、汉普顿宫、查茨沃斯宫和塔顿公园。自从她妈妈在她7岁生日时给了她一包种子后,苏对园艺有了终生的热爱。
她已经享有两个非常成功的职业生涯。在RHS任职之前,她在旅游行业工作了25年,为度假者寻找新的目的地。她是第一位被任命为Kuoni旅游公司董事会成员的女性。
在她目前的角色中,她坚信园艺工作和专业知识没有得到应有的广泛尊重。由于她对环境和观赏园艺行业的服务,她于2017年被授予CBE勋章。
