Skillnet Group is launching a new allotment group in Sittingbourne for adults with a learning difficulty/disability or mental ill health who need support.
We are offering a limited number of FREE taster sessions between 27th October and 22nd December for people to decide whether they would like to join the group.
Skillnet Group has been working with AmicusHorizon and local SureStart Centres to develop a community allotment on Regis Crescent, Milton Regis. The group will mainly be based at this allotment with planting research, recipe development and support planning based at The Pulse Café on Park Road.
People will be supported to learn skills in gardening, wildlife conservation, growing food, tree planting, permaculture garden design and cooking with the produce they grow. The group will also be engaged in the wider development of the allotment.
Group support rates are £36.92 per day, or £21.42 for a half day.
To book a taster session, sign up for group support or for more information contact Hannah Parathian hannah.parathian@skillnetgroup.co.uk or Helen Long helen.long@skillnetgroup.co.uk
