Sensory gardens include features, surfaces, objects and plants that stimulate our senses through touch, sight, scent, taste and hearing.

They are places that can be designed with many different purposes in mind. They can be calming with scented plants and restful seating, an area for growing tasty food and for wildlife friendly plants, a therapeutic space for children and a learning zone full of exciting things to touch and smell.

Sensory gardens are of great benefit to children's health and well-being, the seasonal aspect of growing is educational and the validation in seeing your hard work come to fruition is wonderful. Starting children on their ecologically friendly through life.

We want to extend the paved area in Cumbrae Community Garden to make a number of raised beds more accessible to users of wheelchairs, mobility scooters and walking aids.

Our aim is to allow people from our community to access food with dignity. We are looking to support 250 households access food with dignity through our community larder, This will no doubt be a relief to many working households who are struggling with the rising cost of living and who many do not qualify for extra help. The community larder has no criteria, so anyone can use it when struggling, we help those most in need through referrals from housing associations, CHAP, money matters, social services and community link workers. We offer a range of food that all members can access and choose what they need the most as a top up on their weekly shop. This can make the difference of eating themselves, feeding their children or even providing the basic hygiene products. As the winter months start to creep in we also find that people are having to choose between heating and eating, This puts a huge strain on any household and we endevour to help those members by allowing them to free up money they save from accessing the larder and being able top up gas and electricity.
