This promotes events at the Gather Community Garden and the Bridgemere Centre, both of which you may have visited in recent times. Could you help us be sparing approx 20 minutes to deliver leaflets to the postboxes of the houses on your street?

The form below has more details and will only take 1 minute to complete.

Are you interested in well-being and mental health, and how we can live well together? Wondering about the effects of biodiversity? Curious about growing food? Want to discover perspectives from the ancient Christian faith that may have something to say about all of this? If so, would you consider joining us for our first session on Sunday 2nd March at 10.30am and finishing by 12pm (Additional dates include the 16th and 30th of March. After that it will be every other Sunday.)

We’ll spend some time working in the garden, weeding, sowing, planting, harvesting, cooking, etc, as the seasons allow. There will be time for tea/coffee, biscuits – and possibly homemade cake! During this time we will look at some of the above issues, using resources from an ecological organisation www.arocha.org.uk. You can check them out using the QR code above.

It would help in our planning if you could indicate by signing up at our website – gathercommunitygarden.com
if you are interested. The sessions are open to everyone – there will be activities for children too.

GROUP DISCUSSIONS * REFRESHMENTS * VIDEOS * FREE

You can access the wide footpath via car and drop people off right by the Garden gate if needed.

You cannot park on the footpath but you can turn around and return to the main road. We have places where you can park a bike inside the garden.

The garden is wheelchair and pushchair accessible.
