Gardening for Disabled Trust gives grants to people all over the United Kingdom in order that they may continue to garden, despite disability or advancing illness. A person of any age can apply. It is their love of gardening that counts! Money is given to successful grant applicants and often transforms the recipient as well as the garden, replacing a source of frustration by a valuable therapy and sense of satisfaction.
The Trust can help by;
• Adapting private gardens to meet the special needs of the disabled gardener
• Making grants towards tools, raised beds, paving, wheelchair access and greenhouses for disabled gardeners.
• Providing help with special gardens in hospitals, centres and schools.
• Distributing information on garden aids and techniques.
• Providing a forum for disabled gardeners by publishing the Garden Club’s magazine.
