We aim to develop an interest in the environment and the natural world while also contributing to the upkeep and landscape of our Centre. Our overall aim is to help participants work with similarly minded and aged people, support working and talking as a team and develop mental and physical well-being. It is designed to give members skills around conservation (e.g. hedge laying, tree planting, animal houses), working to improve the environmental impact of the centre (building food compost bins), site maintenance (repairing fences) and getting them using tools and having responsibilities involving the upkeep and improvement of the centre.
