Reaching out into the community
Thrive runs projects at its gardens near Reading and Battersea Park, and increasingly we are venturing out into the community. Working it Out is our successful programme in London which improves employment opportunities for disadvantaged people. And our two community gardening projects reach the isolated members of society. We know these projects are going to flourish in 2012.
