Hi - we'd like to hear from organisations here too - who can help our community with social and therapeutic horticulture here.

Jane Perrone · Answer 1 · 21st July 2016, 15:56:47

This isn't my project, but members may be interested to hear about Thyme 2 Grow, which is seeking funding for a horticulture project for the women at Yarl's Wood IRC in Bedfordshire https://www.facebook.com/thyme2grow/?fre…

Thanks Jane! I'm sure some of our community will be popping over to Thyme 2 Grow. I've had a quick look - very interesting

Hi Jayne, Thank you for sharing, what a brilliant project! I just got rather engrossed in the Facebook page. Going to have a proper look to find out more now. Thanks again! Becca

Jane Perrone · Answer 4 · 22nd July 2016, 11:26:55

No problem - and do spread the word!

Becca Jackson · Answer 5 · 22nd July 2016, 12:22:01

I will - A few of my friends will be really interested in this! Thanks Jane :)

Thrive are the UK's society for horticultural therapy and a great place to find out more! The website is www.thrive.org.uk and the sister site, www.carryongardening.org.uk, has loads of solutions for people who are gardening with disability or ill-health

Thrive is a wonderful organisation for training programs in STH. I'm based in Australia and visited Thrive in 2014 for a 2 Day professional Development Course. I'm now running programs for people in aged care and also just about to release eCourses in Horticultural Therapy. It's a fantastic field to work in, as gardening has many benefits to health and wellbeing!
