In November 2019 we launched a Social and Therapeutic Horticulture project, known as Green Care at Norton CIC. The aim of this project is to use allotment gardening to bring about positive changes in the lives of people living with loneliness, unemployment or who are socially excluded through mental illness, learning difficulties or deprivation. This allotment gardening opportunity uses horticulture to improve physical and mental health, as well as communication and thinking skills. Participants grow their own food and learn the economic and other benefits of growing food. In addition we use the allotment plot as a safe and secure place to develop someone’s ability to mix socially, make friends and learn practical skills that will help them be more independent.Our core activity is growing food and promoting the health and economic benefits of doing so whilst appreciating that some participants will be more interested in the aesthetic aspects for example growing flowers or creative activities.The project director, Ray Wilson, leads the day to day planning and practical work with the help of 3 other volunteers who give whatever time when they can. The project is free to participants and no money is reimbursed in any way to anyone staffing the project. This project has benefitted the community in the following ways:Local people suffering from loneliness and mental health issues can access a safe and productive therapeutic activityAmongst our participants are a number of individuals whose mental health has greatly improved as a result of the projectParticipants who grow food take it home with advice on healthy eating (if needed) and surplus produce is donated in large quantities to the Letchworth Food Bank
The project works in partnership with North Herts District Council, The Job Centre Letchworth, Settle Homes, Create Community Networks and NHS Social Prescribing. Referrals to the project are made from those partner organisations and regular meetings are held with them. We have a short waiting list for the project.Participants’ individual needs are assessed prior to them joining the project and necessary adaptations are made for individual special needs. Because of the needs of some individuals support is intensive and we have a maximum of 10 adult participants at any one time.Once an individual starts with us there is an ongoing dialogue with their referring organisation
