How we help

How we help can be summed up in three words: ‘Connect Grow Enjoy’.
 
Connection covers everything from connecting people to

  • to the benefits of being in the natural world
  • to mindfulness and resilience,
  • to opportunities and friendship networks.

We understand the importance of empowering people to grow – whether in skills, engagement, confidence, or in their ability to make a positive contribution to their community.

Growing is also about reciprocity and nurture: about planting seeds and imagining the fruits to come, about working with nature and natural processes, about managing change and about the reassuring continuity of the cycle of seasons. Find out how green care and social therapeutic horticulture can help people towards personal growth and recovery.

Enjoyment is a key part of everything we do. We want people to look forward to coming to our projects, activities and events, to take an active part, to feel valued and respected, and to recognise the enrichment that diversity and inclusion bring to our community.
