Celebrating National Allotment Week with Jenny’s Inspiring Talk 🥕🥔

🌿✨ A huge thank you to Jenny for delivering such an inspiring and informative talk to our clients in celebration of #NationalAllotmentWeek!

Here at Headway Sussex, we’re lucky to have several allotments cared for by our amazing volunteers, and one of them, Jenny, shared her passion for gardening with us all. 🌱

She not only delivered a fascinating talk but also prepared delicious provisions grown at the allotment and guided our clients in planting mustard and spring onion seeds. 🌼🥕

Gardening and spending time in nature can have incredible benefits for those living with brain injuries, offering a peaceful space for physical activity, sensory engagement, and emotional healing. The simple act of growing plants can help improve mood, coordination, and confidence, fostering a deeper connection with the world around us.

We’re so grateful for Jenny’s dedication and for helping our clients explore the therapeutic power of nature! 🌸💚
