Root and Branch Invest in New Greenhouse

In 2000, Faringdon farmer, Adam Twine obtained a grant from the Countryside Agency to renovate an old farm building to use for community and social purposes. He looked into the idea of creating a therapeutic horticulture project.

Around the same time, a Mental Health Development Worker was researching the needs of people living in the area who experienced mental health difficulties. This research identified a serious lack of support, employment and training-related services for such people. These two strands came together in Root and Branch.

A group of interested and enthusiastic people from the local community took the idea forward to gain charitable status and raised enough funds to open the project in 2003.
