Walworth Garden

Walworth Garden is a unique charity dedicated to changing lives through horticulture. Open to everyone, our award-winning gardens provide an oasis in the heart of Southwark. It’s a place people come to relax, learn and grow. Through gardening education, training and therapy, we also provide opportunities and support for members of the local community, including vulnerable and disabled adults, those who’ve suffered traumatic experiences, and unemployed people looking to improve their professional skills and qualifications. Our twin aims are to enable public access, understanding and enjoyment of horticulture, and to help people develop the skills and confidence they need to find their way back to work, independence and wellbeing. In support of these goals, learning underpins everything we do. Whether people simply want to sit and enjoy their surroundings, take part in training programmes, or find out more about themselves through therapeutic activities, we give them the space, time and help they need.
