At www.greencirclegarden.com our original idea was to develop an innovative system by which disabled
people can undertake practical gardening activities. Inspiration came by
thinking about a way to improve quality of life for people confined to a wheelchair through horticultural therapy.
Gardening should be made accesible and the green circle garden is designed for people all ages to carry on gardening no matter their disability status. Follow us and download our activity programme to get some ideas of all the fun activities you can do depending on the season or the abilities each gardener has.
