This will be the 5th year that our Salopian Community Garden in Hounslow has received the highest award it could receive - The RHS Britain in Bloom: It's Your Neighbourhood 'Outstanding'✨ Award!

Perhaps it's time to challenge ourselves further. Nevertheless, we want to look back and be grateful for the time and work that has been put in by all our volunteers and staff into making this a truly special corner of Hounslow. Thank you all.

Our Salopian garden is open on Wednesdays 10am - 4pm

For the first time, the RHS Britain in Bloom: It's Your Neighbourhood 'Outstanding'🌟 Award goes to the DIG, in Hanwell!

What an adventure it's been. Just over 4 years ago, this was a disused plot in Hanwell, and now it's an outstanding community garden. Have a browse through these photos to see just how far our volunteers and staff have transformed this bit of land in Hanwell. It's a joy to see the DIG reaching the top, but there is more to come!

Our DIG garden opens on Mondays 10am - 3pm.

Bring your brash waste (the above-ground parts of trees, such as foliage, branches, and the crown, that are left on the ground after felling - including the tops and small-diameter branchwood) from Monday 24th until the event, for it to be chipped.

This is an opportunity to also learn about the circular economy project happening at our office site, where we house a biodigester and a polytunnel for growing goodies.

Thank you to Vistry 'who have generously donated and assembled four brand new benches for the central garden at Northwick Park Hospital, and the social value volunteers' from Grundon, as well as local volunteers and work experience participants, 'who gave their time to come to Northwick Park to sand and varnish the benches and help out with some gardening'.

'It is wonderful to see all these teams come together [with Cultivate London], to deliver amazing social value work at the hospital. As a result, the biodiversity across these sites have been improved and green spaces have been created where staff and patients can enjoy and connect with nature.'
