Growing for Wellbeing Week 2022

The next Growing for Wellbeing Week will take place on the 6th – 12th June 2022. The week is a celebration of the magic that growing your own produce can do for your wellbeing, both physically and mentally. 

 

Approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience mental ill health each year. There is strong evidence highlighting the health benefits of gardening and growing your own in particular, including improved confidence, communication, concentration and ultimately self-belief. 

 

Gardening improves mental health, enables better physical health, provides an opportunity to connect with others, acquire new skills and enjoy the great outdoors. 

 

Seven Care Services staff will be supporting our clients to grow their own vegetables in both our community and supported living settings. Hopefully a positive impact will be felt for both staff and residents alike.
