About The Founders....

Welcome to The Healing Garden UK, the heartfelt initiative of Shan and Abi, a dedicated mother-daughter duo from Runcorn, UK. Their mission is to cultivate a sense of community and well-being through the therapeutic practice of gardening. Both founders bring unique strengths to their roles, creating a nurturing environment where individuals of all ages can engage with nature and each other.

SHAN

 Shan has always had a deep connection to gardening, not only as a horticulturist but also as a powerful means to support her own mental health. She understands firsthand the restorative power of connecting with the earth and uses this passion to inspire and heal others. Her extensive knowledge and personal experience with the calming effects of gardening are at the core of The Healing Garden UK. Shan’s vision is to create a space where the community can learn and grow together, finding peace and restoration in the garden.

ABI

 Influenced by her mother’s love for plants and commitment to wellness, Abi has embraced the family tradition of gardening from a young age. With a vibrant energy and a keen interest in education, Abi focuses on making gardening accessible and enjoyable, particularly for children. Her innovative ‘learning from play’ approach ensures that The Healing Garden UK’s youngest visitors find joy and fascination in the natural world, fostering environmental awareness and personal growth from an early age.

Bringing the Community Together...

Together, Shan and Abi offer a range of services designed to enrich the lives of Runcorn’s community members. From adult workshops that address mental health through practical gardening skills to dynamic children’s programs that engage young minds in environmental stewardship, their offerings cater to a diverse audience.

The garden itself is more than just a collection of plants; it is a sanctuary where individuals can escape everyday stresses and connect with a supportive community. Here, adults can find tranquility and therapeutic relief, while children can play, learn, and grow in a safe and encouraging environment.
