Charity overview

Activities - how the charity spends its money

Children explore how to plant, care for and harvest the vegetables, fruit and flowers that are grown at Little Roots Allotment. We promote healthy living through physical activity, social interaction and the accessibility to fresh produce. We encourage the sharing of knowledge between generations, introducing children to gardening experiences that some may seldom have the opportunity to enjoy.
