The idea

This project will transform an unused green space in Radcliffe into an open-access allotment for diverse community activities, available five days a week.

It will offer recreational, financial, physical, and mental health benefits, fostering community cohesion and integration.

The site preserves and increases biodiversity, supports nature conservation, and provides education and food growing to mitigate the cost-of-living crisis. The team will also create a grass roof on an existing storage container.

This project aims to enhance residents' quality of life through engagement with nature and sustainable practices.
