The Amwell Launches New Gardening Club

The sun has arrived at the Amwell Care Home, and with it comes a brand-new Gardening Club that’s already blooming with joy, purpose, and community spirit. As the days grow longer and the sunshine brings new life to the outdoors, residents have been rolling up their sleeves and getting stuck into the garden - with fantastic results - whether it’s planting flowers, tidying up the raised beds, or simply enjoying a cup of tea in the fresh air, the Gardening Club has become a wonderful way to connect with nature and each other.

The Gardening Club was introduced to encourage residents to spend more time outside, enjoy the fresh air, and connect with nature in a meaningful and engaging way. The garden has become a place for relaxation, laughter, and companionship.

Gardening is well known for its therapeutic benefits, and at The Amwell, those benefits are being felt in full bloom. The club offers residents a chance to stay active, nurture something over time, and experience the simple joy of seeing something grow. From raised beds to plant pots, every corner of the garden is becoming a canvas for creativity and care.

But it’s not just about the plants. The Gardening Club has sparked a renewed sense of confidence and independence among residents, as well as a deeper sense of community. Our staff have also embraced the initiative, working alongside residents and enjoying the opportunity to connect on a more personal level outdoors.

Families and the local community have joined in too, with loved ones donating plants and sharing gardening tips. The club is quickly growing into something far greater than a weekly activity - it’s becoming a cherished part of life at The Amwell.

With the sun shining and spirits high, there’s no better time to be outdoors. And at The Amwell Care Home, the garden is not just a place to grow flowers, it’s where friendships flourish and memories are made. Get in touch with our friendly team today to book a tour of our home.
