Gardening Project - Individual
Our gardening scheme is the organisations first Social Enterprise that Leeds Black Elders Association has undertaken, the gardening scheme became a Social Enterprise in 2007.
This scheme is a seasonal service. Usually commencing from April and ending September/October (weather permitting).
- Clearing overgrown gardens
- Cutting and pruning hedges/bushes
- Mowing lawns
- Planting
We may take other types of outside work, i.e fencing in the out of season months.
Our referral system allows the service user/representative to contact the office with their details, where each referral is logged and responded to within 24 hours. Once all details have been taken, a site visit will be undertaken.
When the work has been completed service users are given a choice of being put onto a regular rota where the service users garden will be visited every two to three weeks on request.
There are two rates for this service there is a commercial rate for works carried to the public who do not fit the criteria and a domestic rate for our service users.
