THE WALLED GARDEN PROJECT - FUNDERS & VOLUNTEERS

We are always in need of donations large and small.

If you are a business, charitable trust, funding body or just looking for a worthwhile cause to whom you wish to donate then please don’t hesitate to contact us. We would be delighted to hear from you. We would be happy to show you round our project and introduce you to some of our beneficiaries. You will be able to see for yourselves what a worthwhile charity we are.

We welcome donations of time, goods, equipment and machinery and the all important money to help with large purchases and to secure salaries for the staff at the project. Without them we cannot function.

We gained charitable status in March 2005. We have benefitted over 200 people of different ages, abilities and backgrounds. They all attended on a regular basis and the pictures in our gallery say it all.

The RAF at Cosford provided volunteers to help clear land - one Sunday in February 2006 over 40 RAF men and women came and helped out.

Lyreco have donated slight seconds in paper and office materials which are incredibly useful.
