Mental Health
Growing Well's core aim is to offer opportunities for people recovering from mental health problems to build their confidence and skills. Our team members get involved in a wide range of tasks within our farm-based enterprise.
Participants volunteer their time within three different teams at the farm; the Horticulture Team, the Admin Team and the Education Team. Our working day is from 9.30am to 4pm and many volunteers work with us for more than one day per week. Our volunteers' placements are usually funded by organisations such as Social Services, the NHS or Job Centre Plus and the co-ordination of these placements is supported with a grant from Ecominds, a Big lottery fund. We encourage anyone who feels they could benefit from being involved in our activities to contact us to arrange an initial visit to Growing Well.
