🏡❤️ Another Free Gardening Service — Wellways ❤️🏡
Today I had the pleasure of helping out through - Wellways, a not-for-profit organisation supporting people facing mental health and mobility challenges.
What started as a free gardening job turned into so much more than just getting stuck into the garden.
Mick was absolutely wrapped with the end result. He told me he thought he was going to get much less done than what we were able to achieve, and his appreciation genuinely meant a lot to me. 🙏
We also had a great chat along the way, and Mick even looked after me with a couple of hot coffees ☕️ — so I definitely wasn't complaining!
For me, this is what Community Garden Maintenance is all about.
It's not just mowing, pruning, w**ding or tidying up a garden.
It's about helping someone feel better about their surroundings, creating a safe and enjoyable outdoor space, having a chat, listening, and reminding people that they matter.
The gardening is simply the tool I use to make a difference.
Free of charge. No judgement. Just one person helping another, one garden at a time.
A huge thank you to Wellways for the referral and to Mick for the coffee, the conversation and the kind words. ❤️
Helping people who need a hand, one week at a time. 🌱🏡
