We deliver impact for local young people & residents.We operate a Gardening Services social enterprise, comprising the following activities:1. Commercial Gardening Services: offering gardening services to corporate clients, property developers & local authorities in London. Income generated through our commercial activities is ploughed back into supporting our charitable work.2. Community Gardening: we have created – and currently manage – 7 community growing spaces in West & South London. In 2015 CL worked with local volunteers to develop our flagship community kitchen garden – Salopian Garden – on a formerly derelict site in Isleworth. The site is now a tranquil & beautiful oasis of green in the heart of Hounslow. We work with a range of community partners to deliver a variety of workshops here. We have three main objectives:1) to act as a resource for local people by providing work-based training & activities2) to advance the education of the public in horticulture, local food production & sustainable living practices3) to improve the physical environment & cohesion of communities & area in LondonIn recognition of our efforts, we were named the 2012 Observer Food Monthly's "Producer of the Year" and received the 2013 Hounslow Business Award for "Best Business for Apprenticeships and Employment for Young People".
