Welcome to The Growing Space
The Green Heart Of Wincanton



At The Growing Space, we empower individuals to experience positive life change and improve their mental and physical wellbeing through Social & Therapeutic Horticulture and related outdoor activities.
Our year-round programmes offer hands-on experiences in wildlife gardening, propagation, natural art and crafts, and woodland activities. Participants grow flowers, vegetables and herbs, and help enhance community green spaces - building confidence, social skills, and a sense of pride along the way.
Rooted in a social model of mental health, our activities focus on personal recovery journeys - encouraging reflection, cooperation, and connection with nature.
Whatever your age or ability, whether you’re new to gardening or an old hand, we’re sure there’ll be something here to capture your interest.
.
We work in with Health Coaches, Social Prescribers, Adult Social Care Teams, and other services to support people who need community activities. Our inclusive approach helps break down barriers to health, employment, and social participation.
You'll find details of our current activities and services on this website, but if we can help you or someone you care for in other ways, contact us and we’ll do our best to cater for your requirements. We offer extra support to people who need it and our qualified, experienced staff are here to help.
