We have started our operations from this location predominantly Seaton & Linksfield Neighbourhoods.Our charitable purposes are:the advancement of health; the advancement of citizenship or community development; the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantageWe believe that utilising outdoor spaces, growing food & gardening, keeping areas safe and tidy, with other fully inclusive group health/ wellness activities is a positive way of achieving these purposes. We enjoy working in partnership with local residents, many of our projects will create long lasting legacies for the community. In synergy with other groups, services, professionals and partnership bodies.
