I am a trained horticulturalist and teacher based in Lancashire offering a personal garden advice service and running gardening projects, courses and workshops for adults, children and those with disabilities across Lancashire and Greater Manchester. My aim is to make gardening fun and help people at all levels develop their skills and knowledge. Since then I have set up a garden design and maintenance business in Lancashire and combined it with teaching gardening and horticulture skills to children, adults and those with learning disabilities and mental health problems. Through this I have become a fully qualified teacher and can now pass on my gardening knowledge and expertise through one-to-one advice and training as well as group workshops, training sessions, courses and talks. I‘ve worked with MIND Tameside, Oldham and Glossop, Lancashire Adult Learning, Chorley Council, Longridge Town Council, Progress Housing, RSPB and Groundwork MSSTT as well as many other customers across Lancashire. I currently manage and deliver a range of therapeutic gardening courses for Start in Salford.
