Who this task will support
HOPE Nottingham
how we help Hope Nottingham's vision is to 'inspire and grow communities of Hope throughout Nottingham and beyond'. We are a Christian charity, which supports those of all faith or none. We work in shared mission with local churches and community groups, empowering volunteers to serve those in need in neighbourhoods all around Nottingham. ​ Hope House in Beeston and our newly developed Carlton Community Hub have become one-stop community support centres, working in partnership with many local agencies, to provide places of trust and transformation for local people. ​ Hope Nottingham operates many neighbourhood Foodbanks across the city, helping people out of crisis and directing people to life-changing support. Some of these centres are beginning to develop the same model as Hope House to meet the physical, material and spiritual needs of local communities.

As well as the Meadows Foodbank where have been many-a-time, Hope Nottingham look after the Carlton Sensory Garden (also known as the Garden for the Blind). The garden needs a little bit of TLC and GoodGym Nottingham have been asked to go and spend some time weeding and pruning, and tidying up the raised beds.

IMPORTANT: please bring gardening gloves and, if you have some, a pair of secateurs

We will meet at 6.30pm and be done at 7.30pm.

The Carlton Sensory Garden (Garden for the Blind) is on the corner of Carlton Hill and Albert Avenue click for map location.

If you have any questions about GoodGym at all, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
