No comments NAC Admin 4 Garnock Valley

Bridgend Cancer Support Group helps the community, members and their families deal with the emotional scars during and after a cancer diagnosis. We provide a safe place for them to share their feelings and allows them to hear from other people in similar situations and how they overcame challenges they may have faced. Tea and Coffee are now provided and no-one is turned away if living in a different area.

Social Horticulture for Experts & Dummies (SHED)

1 comment Community Roots North Coast

SHED is a community gardening project based at the Community Roots Garden in Main Street West Kilbride. We have weekly gardening sessions, offering a relaxed space to learn no-dig and permaculture food growing whilst coming together for friendship. The group is as much focussed on mental and physical wellbeing as it is on food security and sustainability. We distribute the food we grow amongst the volunteers and the local Village Larder.
