The Growing Project Pensilva

In 2012 I saw an article in the parish magazine asking for help to put up a shed. The shed project was finished ages ago but I'm still there - now as an unpaid Director of this remarkable Community Interest Company.

The Growing Project CIC has turned peoples lives around. Disadvantaged volunteers grow vegetables to organic standards in safe and friendly surroundings. The vegetables are used in boxes sold to the local community. Doing this productive work has great therapeutic power, building confidence and skills. Now several of our volunteers have moved on to permanent jobs.
