A big shout out to our amazing Garon Park Youth Club volunteer, Phil, who dedicates his time each week to deliver fantastic football sessions for our young people! 🙌

Phil creates fun, engaging and inclusive sessions where children of all ages and abilities can get involved, build their skills, stay active and, most importantly, enjoy themselves! ⚽ The kids absolutely love these sessions, and we’re so grateful for the enthusiasm, time and commitment Phil brings every single week.

🌱 At Garon Park, we’re turning food waste into opportunity! 🌱

Food waste is a major environmental challenge, particularly when it ends up in landfill and contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. At Wellbeing at Garon Park, we’re doing our bit to tackle this by looking at how we can manage our food waste right here on site and turn it into something valuable…nutrient-rich compost for our gardens and growing spaces. 🌿

This initiative is about more than simply reducing waste. It’s about creating a more sustainable cycle where food waste can return to the soil, supporting our growing projects, biodiversity and the wider wellbeing of our community. 🌍💚

We’re incredibly grateful to Building a sustainable future together. for their generous funding, which has enabled us to establish this fantastic initiative and take another step towards a more sustainable Garon Park.

♻️ Waste becomes compost.
Compost supports soil.
Healthy soil supports growth.
And growing together supports wellbeing.

🎥 Watch our YouTube video to find out more about what we’re doing and why food waste matters.

And if you’re thinking about composting at home, remember that safe composting is important. Food waste needs to fully break down before being used in the garden, and it’s worth getting expert advice to make sure your composting method is safe and suitable for your needs.

Together, we can turn food waste into something positive. 🌱

💚 A HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR WONDERFUL VOLUNTEERS! 🌿

Last week, we had a very special visitor to Garon Park, Her Royal Highness, The Princess of Wales! 👑✨

Although the visit was kept a secret from our staff and volunteers, we knew we had to make sure our beautiful park and community garden were looking their very best for the occasion. And, as always, our amazing volunteers did a fantastic job! 🌼🌱

We want to take this opportunity to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who gives their time, energy and dedication to keeping our green spaces looking so wonderful. Your hard work, commitment and pride in what you do make such a difference to Wellbeing at Garon Park and our wider community. 💚

We hope you feel incredibly proud of yourselves and the important role you play in making our park such a special place for everyone to enjoy.

We are so grateful for each and every one of you. Our volunteers really are at the heart of what we do! 💚🌻

Thank you for everything you do! 🌿
