The Growing Better Lives Project.
Growing Better Lives is a social enterprise based in a yurt at an environmental centre near Uxbridge. Weekly therapy groups are based on principles of modified therapeutic communities, ecological sustainability and ‘greencare’ (therapeutic horticulture and other nature-based approaches). The team includes ex-service users, horticultural therapists and a medical psychotherapist.
The judges said: “The Greencare for Personality Disorder programme demonstrated excellent environmental awareness across all aspects of the service, from care delivery through to sourcing local food and using green spaces therapeutically.
