More about our impact
The environment
We planned that each planter would fit in with the pollinating strategy. there are herbs, spices lavenders, seasonal plants that attract wildlife such as - butterflies, bees, insects and birds. It improved the visual aspect of the areas and also got people talking. We also gained information and volunteers by being in the neighborhoods,people stopped and talked and commented how much better the planters where, some wanted to help physically or donations.
The local economy
We used Local nurseries, market, garden centers to purchase the flower displays. With a better visual look it could help people to want to live and work in the area.
Volunteering, jobs & education
We gained 20 planter volunteers and a list of other people who would volunteer in other environment areas, we are also linking to a wide range of other community groups doing local environment events.
Arts, culture & heritage
A Mosaic picture was provide by a group of learners with disabilities and is displayed in the sensory garden.
Activity, health and leisure
By being a Physical project everyone gained health wise physically and mentally. Some volunteers spoke about how it helped their anxiety.
