Local Business Garden Divas Supports Garden Therapy Charity
| Published: 25th June 2008 08:13 |
Local business Garden Divas is pleased to announce that it has become a "Growing Friend" supporting the work of the "Growing People" Horticultural Therapy Programme based at the Letchworth Centre for Healthy Living.
Horticultural therapy helps individuals to engage in gardening activities in as passive or active way as they wish, but all focused on improving their quality of life. Initially working with people with severe mental health problems, the Programme is being expanded to provide a broader range of opportunities and run a range of projects working with a wide variety of disabled or disadvantaged individuals and groups.
In order to become a "Growing Friend" Garden Divas has made a financial contribution to the project and is also donating £1 from every sale of the American Modern 'Growing Wishes' kits. Purchases can be made online at Garden Divas or by contacting the owner, Gilly Brown, directly on 01462 454836 or 07810 816914.
