A Special Thank you goes out to the Worcestershire Community Foundation. Without their Covid-19 funding, we would not be able to reach out to so many Veterans within the Worcestershire area. The grant will part fund the Forest Garden and Beekeeping projects and cover the extra costs with care packages and small grants to our most Vulnerable group who are struggling with daily costs whilst on lock down.

I like going to the allotment, meeting veterans and learning new skills on how to grow own vegetables, also great to meet the project lead and If I can do anything for you I will. Nice to come and chat and Share food with friends.
