Finding solace in our garden
One of our visitors, facing a challenging time with temporary accommodation and missing her own garden, found a new sense of purpose with us. Volunteering at Garlinge Phoenix Project CIC allowed her to connect with new people, continue her passion for gardening, and find distraction from her situation, significantly improving her mental health.
A haven of friendship and learning
Everyone who has visited or worked with us has praised our 'little haven'. Not only do we offer an escape from the busy world outside, but we also provide friendship, valuable learning opportunities, and always a warm cup of tea and biscuits. It's a place where connections flourish and spirits are lifted.
From wilderness to community hub
Creating our beautiful and functional garden from what was once a wilderness was a significant challenge. Our proudest achievement is the space we have cultivated, which now brings people together, offers opportunities to build life skills, fosters friendships, and enhances people's sense of purpose.
