To install raised beds in an assisted living accommodation. This would result in countless NHS Mental health patients impacted (every resident which is referred to this accommodation in future) as well as numerous staff who help the residents and will be gardening alongside them.

The project was great for bringing people together: rather than being in their separate rooms the residents were able to come together for a joint activity, which they really enjoyed.

The thing that worked really well about this project is that it was based at the residents location. A lot of projects require people to travel to visit them, but this can be really hard for people with different accessibility needs, so having it onsite worked really well.
