Next to gay village. Don't forget this mastermind! Sackville Gardens is a small park just to the north of Canal Street is a lush green space where you can relax and embrace nature in the fast-paced city. However, it’s not just the chance for a quiet picnic that should draw you here because this park is also a spot for reflection for our community, featuring: The Alan Turing Memorial: A statue of the WW2 code breaker who was arrested for his sexuality and committed suicide as a result. The Beacon of Hope memorial: Mentioned above, this is the only permanent memorial in the UK to those lost to HIV/AIDS. The Transgender Memorial: Here several butterflies are carved into the tree to represent the “change from one state of existence to another”.
