The Kitchen Garden: New project at Drylaw Neighbourhood Centre

Introducing The Garden Kitchen! 🌱

We’re excited to be starting a new Gardening & Wellbeing Group at Drylaw Neighbourhood Centre.

Starting Thursday 15th October, The Garden Kitchen will be a weekly group where adults from Drylaw and Telford can come together, spend time outdoors, grow food, learn new skills and enjoy good food and company.

🌿 Every Thursday, 10am–2pm, sessions will include:

• Gardening and food growing

• Cooking and sharing a communal meal

• Learning practical skills

• Peer support and conversation

• Opportunities to gain new qualifications and experience

The group is a welcoming space for anyone experiencing loneliness, poor mental wellbeing or social isolation, and is all about building confidence, making connections and feeling part of the community.

There will also be opportunities to work towards a Food Hygiene Level 2 qualification and develop skills that could lead to volunteering or employment.

If you’d like to find out more, please get in touch with the lovely Jane at wellbeing@drylawnc.org.uk
