Gardening club

Supporting customers unable to care for their garden

Due to high demand, our gardening club is now fully booked for 2023. A waiting list is in place which you can join by contacting customer services and completing a form. At the moment we cannot say for how long you may need to wait for a place.

The gardening club has been developed to help and support customers to look after their garden.

To qualify you must get a disability allowance such as a working tax credit (disability elements), incapacity benefit or attendance allowance. You can also join if you have specific special requirements. You will also need to have a clear rent account to join.

The cost to join is £3.97 a week which entitles you to 16 visits a year between March and October. During each 1 hour visit, our contractor will maintain the following features in your garden:

• grass
• hedges
• paths and other hard surface areas
• borders
• shrub beds (weeding and tidying).

Please note, grass cuttings are not cleared as part of this service.
