We dug up some dirt on Bristol’s latest debut allotment which will be the talk of all the slow worms for years to come. Not only does the allotment have plans for a veg and chilli empire, but the allotment next door is also undergoing renovations, as evidenced by the partial removal of turf at this task. The runners involved reported that great lengths and arm strength were required to get to the root of the story.


This task supported
The Matthew Tree Project
We strive to empower and support people who have fallen into crisis, for whatever reason, to rebuild their lives and create a better, healthier, happier future.

'Rebuilding Lives' is the pioneering and holistic working model created by The Matthew Tree Project (TMTP) which provides a complete 'wrap-around' range of support and guidance services for those living on the very edge of society, hit by crisis and at risk of homelessness.The simple and compassionate act of giving people food on a weekly basis has created a safe and positive environment to build relationship and gain an understanding of each person’s circumstances. This allows us to engage on a much deeper level - to get to the heart of the problem, and then support people to move from crisis to independence in the best possible way.
