This is a new IOE initiative that focuses on both sustainability and mental health. Look after a plant of your own and be part of a community.
Let's Grow Together: Grab a Pot and Join the Club
Gardening has many known benefits for our mental health. Looking after a plant, getting your hands dirty can help you achieve a sense of purpose and relief stress, as well as providing a moment of mindfulness from your hectic schedule. Besides, a little green will definitely spruce up your room!
As part of this initiative, you will be joining a community of plant-buddies. You will get a plant pot to care for yourself for free. Over the next academic year, there will be regular check-ins and meetings with other members of the gardening club, to see how everybody’s plants (and minds!) are doing.
No gardening experience is needed – we will provide you with the tools and the guidance. Book a slot to collect your free plant pot, and we will connect you with the rest of the club members.
