Growing
Matters Garden Centre sell quality gardening materials to the general
public. We are also a Horticultural Therapy Project providing
voluntary work for people with mental health needs.
Growing Matters is based at, though
not run by, Lancaster and Morecambe College in Torrisholme, Morecambe.
There are two sites at Growing Matters (though this could change
in the future). The main site is open to the public consists
of: a large greenhouse, sales areas, The Secret Garden, Country
Craft Shop and open vegetable frames. There is also a plot
of land nearby which is used for growing fruit and veg. There
is good disabled access and there is plenty of parking around the
LMC site.
Growing Matters is managed by the
charity Making Space and their charity number is 512907.
As it is also a therapy unit we
have to meet certain standards. We have four staff members
and a number of volunteers helping out where possible. The
members of Growing Matters are able to do voluntary work in a comfortable
and relaxing environment.
