Planting in the Playground Project 2022

The London Children’s Flower Society in affiliation with the Jack Petchey Foundation, have launched the ‘Planting in the Playground’ project.

The Planting in the Playground Project is looking to identify Secondary and Special Needs Schools across the London Boroughs that have no garden or very little gardening area and are in need of our help to set  up a green garden space at their school.

Successful schools will be provided with a planter, soil, gardening tools, gardening guide book, bulbs/seeds and our ongoing support for the next three years.  Schools will also have an opportunity to take part in our annual gardening competitions.

Applications will open from January 4th 2022 and must be received by the deadline of March 31st 2022.

If your school would like to be considered, please complete our online questionnaire below:
