The Allotment Project

​
Interaction with others, calming exercise and the fresh air are known to improve mood, general health and to energize. Add in learning the ancient art of growing plants, vegetables & fruit and you have some skills that can either be taken home or to prospective employers - and our allotment project was born.
​
Here you can chat, learn, exercise at your own pace and try your hand at a few natural crafts. A few hours at the allotment can revitalise you whilst helping improve fitness, mobility and you can make a few new friends.
​
…. and we have to say, there's a certain amount of patting on backs, clinking of celebratery tea cups and proud smiles when the harvesting is done.
​
If we connect with nature, we can reconstruct our soul, spirit and strength.
