THE RED SHED PROJECT CHARITABLE INCORPORATED ORGANISATION

The Red Shed CIO provides gardening and garden inspired activities for people living with dementia and their carers. Our aim is to improve the mental and physical wellbeing of our participants and to reduce the effects of isolation. We do this through weekly garden clubs run in our dementia friendly, all access garden in Bedwell, Stevenage.
