With great success, therapeutic horticulture sessions have been delivered to Katharine House Hospice. We harvested potatoes, tomatoes, onions, carrots, beans, herbs and flowers. We plan bigger and better next year.

GLEBEFIELDS CARE CENTRE
July 2010
Space 2 Grow has recently introduced therapeutic horticulture to Glebefields Care Centre. Taking advantage of existing raised beds, a fabulous rural location and fine weather, the new group has enjoyed numerous outdoor sessions. Working collaboratively in small groups or individually, the residents continue to enjoy the gentle exercise, social interaction and fresh air that the sessions bring. Friends and relatives join in too adding another dimension to the friendly sessions.

As with groups elsewhere, the reconnection with horticulture is very important to this group of people and recognized by them as a meaningful activity.
