Partner with Let’s Grow Preston to Create Real Social Value in Preston

Together, we grow more than food and plants—we grow skills, community connections, and a healthier environment.

Why Social Value Matters

At Let’s Grow Preston, our mission goes beyond gardening. Every project we run delivers measurable social impact:

  • Empowering Local Communities: Our gardens and workshops give residents, young and old, the chance to learn new skills and connect with their neighbours.

  • Promoting Health and Wellbeing: Growing food and plants encourages healthy eating, physical activity, and mental wellbeing.

  • Environmental Stewardship: We reduce food miles, promote biodiversity, and encourage sustainable practices across Preston.
