Get involved with ‘Growing Lives’: a new Sydenham Garden programme

Growing Lives flyer Feb 15

Growing Lives is an exciting new programme at Sydenham Garden for people recovering from or living with mental ill health, using a therapeutic market garden format. Co-workers (people referred) will have the opportunity to be involved with all aspects of running the market garden from growing, marketing and selling crops, helping out with community days, as well as working toward qualifications accredited by Open College Network. The programme aims to improve confidence, self-esteem and prospects, reduce social isolation and promote healthy eating.

Please speak to your GP or key worker to be referred or contact the Sydenham Garden office for more information: 0208 291 1650/ e-mail katie@sydenhamgarden.org.uk
