| Recipient Org: Description | Growing Well is an established mental health charity and organic farm near Kendal. Since 2004 we have helped hundreds of people recover from mental ill health through activity, support and training. Our aim is that through participation in activity, social integration, training and monitored goals participants will (re)develop the confidence and resilience to move on from Growing Well into employment, further education or achieve another identified life goal, carrying with them sustainable mental health management skills and techniques. Our objectives are to help people affected by mental ill health to: Build emotional resilience Develop vocational and life skills Support healthier and more active living Our model of support termed ‘Recovery through Activity’, involves beneficiaries spending a day a week with us for about a year. It offers an alternative or sometimes a compliment to, talking therapies, where through participation in activity, working individually or in small groups people have time and space to recover. Most volunteers work in the field, growing, tending and harvesting up to 15 tonnes of organic crops, most of which are distributed through a Community Supported Agriculture veg box scheme to 100 local families, catering volunteers prepare a daily lunch with the surplus or spoiled crops. |
