Gardening and Horticultural Therapy

Community gardening scheme

The Trust provides a community gardening scheme. This is run by a support worker who supports several people with disabilities to undertake gardening work in the community. In essence it is a small social enterprise. If you live in Maghull and need any gardening work to be done, then please phone us. It is a valued service and affords meaningful day opportunities for people with disabilities.
