02 Activities

What the charity does

At Earthworks people of all abilities learn and work together. Local people but particulary those with learning difficulties and mental health issues work on our sustainably managed site learning horticulture and land-based skills. Contract groups go out into the community to design and maintain private gardens and do conservation work in schools, nature reserves and public land.
