Glossop Community Allotment aims to get as many different people as possible from across Glossop to enjoy and benefit from the wellbeing boost which comes from planting, tending and harvesting fruit and vegetables.
The Community Allotment is managed by its own CIC and is part of our partnership of wellbeing organisations. We are setting up a Men in Sheds project (where older men come together to do purposeful work and enjoy each other’s company) and hope to restart our Women in Wellies session – a “social group of ladies who garden” to augment our general sessions on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings.
In fact, we have lots of plans to spread the benefit of allotments and would really like to be clear that any individual who would like to “do a bit of gardening” or “making and mending”, but whose personal situation is stopping them, can come up to the allotment (at the top of Dinting Lane) and share the joy.
