We change lives using horticulture therapy, connecting the City of Preston to green spaces to improve physical and mental wellbeing.
Practical gardening skills. Real results. Affordable for everyone.
Join our friendly, hands-on gardening club and learn how to grow, care for and enjoy your garden with expert guidance from a local horticulturalist.
This isn’t a sit-and-chat club — you’ll take part in practical tasks, learn by doing, and leave with real confidence to grow your own.

Celebrating Preston’s Green Spaces
We’re excited to support YourMap, a Preston-based digital initiative celebrating our city’s green spaces and community efforts. In partnership with Let’s Grow Preston, the project is creating a film and booklet to highlight local parks, woodlands, play-parks, and allotments, along with stories and photos from the community.
If you’d like to contribute a story, photo, or recording, you can email dave@yourmaponline.co.uk or call Chris on 07971 641824. All submissions should be sent by the end of 2025.
Discover more about the project and explore the green spaces in Preston on the YourMap website.
Creating Social Impact in Preston
At Let’s Grow Preston, we believe growing food and community go hand in hand. Our projects provide real social value—helping local residents learn new skills, access healthy food, and connect with their neighbours.
How LGP Contributes Social Value to Preston:
-
Community Engagement: Over 200 volunteers involved in local garden projects over the last year!
-
Education & Skills: Providing workshops teaching sustainable gardening.
-
Environmental Impact: Promoting local food growing and reducing food miles across Preston.
Join us for a team day that grows more than just gardens—your employees will make a real difference in the Preston community.”
