Gardening Together - how to set up a local gardening club

Gardening Together

Gardening Together

If you would like to start a local gardening club for blind and partially sighted people, but are feeling a little daunted because you’re not sure where to start, Thrive and RNIB can help! 

Thrive and RNIB have produced a full colour, 40 page guide, which is free of charge thanks to funding from the Big Lottery Fund.

The guide draws on the experience of gardeners and professionals who have successfully launched their own club and has advice and information, tips from visually impaired gardeners, programme ideas and useful contact details. The guide is written in a friendly 'Question and Answer’ format and is available in large print, audio CD and Braille.

To get your free copy, email our Information Service  on 0118 988 5688. Alternatively, you can write to us: Thrive, The Geoffrey Udall Centre, Beech Hill, Reading RG7 2AT.
