C2C Social Action runs a therapeutic gardening project for women in Northampton. The project is set on a triple sized allotment plot and offers a safe, tranquil space for women to learn how to grow a whole range of fruit, flowers, vegetables and herbs. Produce is shared at C2C's Women’s Centre in Northampton and is used to raise awareness about fresh, locally grown food and improve nutrition.
The women referred to the project may have experienced mental ill health, domestic abuse, trauma, poverty and may have been or are at risk of being in the criminal justice system. The garden offers women an opportunity to engage in a meaningful activity through gardening; socialise with others in a therapeutic space and enjoy the wellbeing benefits of being outside.
