Growing Together

Growing Together welcomes older people, people living with dementia, and carers. Whether you are a seasoned gardener or new to growing, our hope for the group is that we will enjoy quality time together while completing gentle, seasonal gardening tasks. During our time together we will also prepare and enjoy a seasonal snack.

When and How Many

The group meets twice a month on Wednesday mornings, from 10:30 to 12:30, typically on the second or fourth Wednesday of each month. Each session welcomes up to six participants, along with two session hosts and one or more group volunteers. Currently, guests are invited to attend once a month.
Participants are welcome to join the group alone or with a companion if they require care and support. In such cases, the companion will provide full support throughout the session. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide transport to and from the group.
Here are some more photos from our recent sessions!
