Formerly the Gardening for Disabled Trust, they offer small grants to individuals who suffer all types of chronic disabilities both mental and physical, to help them get gardening again. They also like to support gardening groups for such individuals. Grants tend to be under £1,500.
Funding is not available for general maintenance, clearing, fencing, cutting down trees or decking and normally grants are only given to adults, not children.
The Trust offers the following support:
- The adaptation of private gardens to meet the special needs of disabled people.
- Grants towards a range of items eg tools, planting tables, raised beds, paving, wheelchair access, handrails and greenhouses.
- The provision of help with special gardens in hospitals, centres and schools, and
The provision information on garden aids and techniques.
Applicants are required to give details of the work to be carried out, including an estimate of the cost of the material and tools.
