About Us:
We work with communities to improve mental and physical health & wellbeing, and reducing social isolation through community growing and nature connection. We do this in collaboration with organisations with whom we share common aims and values: Anaka Women’s Collective, Gairdin an Phobail, PPR, Forthspring Inter-Community, The Larder, Newington Housing Association and others. Together, through building individual and community resilience we contribute to tackling some of the big issues of our time: poor health, loneliness, climate breakdown, biodiversity loss.
We are embedded in communities in East, West and North Belfast. All five growing spaces are in areas of high deprivation where people are living with the legacy of the NI conflict. There is a changing demographic in the communities where we work, with new communities including people seeking asylum and with refugee status dealing with migration-related trauma, poverty, exclusion, racism, poor housing, all leading to poor mental and physical health.
