Growing The Community Together
Green Synergy is an award-winning Lincoln based gardening and horticulture charity that supports people to socialise, learn and thrive.
Green Synergy use community gardening and therapeutic horticulture to support people to improve their mental health and wellbeing. Our charity supports people of all ages in the most deprived communities in Lincolnshire to improve their mental and physical wellbeing.
Our charity currently manages two community gardens, Hillside Garden and Ellie’s Memorial Garden. We deliver community gardening programmes, volunteering, warm spaces and community engagement events to bring communities together to create more life chances, quality green spaces and re-connect people to green spaces, growing and nature.
We work with disadvantaged communities and with people with additional needs, including those living with mental health conditions, learning difficulties, physical disabilities, long term health problems and unemployment.
Gardening is used to build skills for life and work to improve mental and physical health and to educate people about the environment, food and green spaces.
This is good for wellbeing because
- It enables people to learn skills for life, for work and encourages people to care for themselves, each other and the environment.
- It enables people to meet new people, make new friends, reduce their isolation and have fun in our gardens.
- It enables people to build their confidence and self-esteem, support their family / carers and provides a safe and enriching space to learn more about gardening and themselves.
