Story

Growing Happiness is an allotment / gardening project set up by the Volunteer Network in Glastonbury to give people the opportunity to meet others and get active while growing vegetables. 

We found out about the project in November 2023 when Mum fell and broke her hip outside their office. The project coordinators called the ambulance and bought her tea, company and comfort, sitting with her for over 2 hours while we waited for the ambulance. 

Mum was overwhelmed by their kindness and we'd arranged to go along to the project and join in once she'd recuperated. Mum loved gardening and had a wealth of knowledge and experience to offer. Sadly this was not to be as, although she was just getting back on her feet again, her heart gave out at the end of January. Rather than sending flowers for her funeral please consider donating to this project which will give others the opportunity to grow some happiness. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
