Thrive

To celebrate Volunteers' Week, Thrive, Birmingham held a special Volunteer Thank You event last Thursday. Our amazing volunteers were treated to a beautiful lunch in the gardens, followed by speeches recognising their incredible contributions. The event also provided an opportunity for volunteers to enjoy the gardens, socialise with one another, and take part in a seed-sowing activity.

We had a wonderful time and would like to say a huge thank you to our brilliant volunteers. We simply could not do what we do without them. Their hard work, dedication, and ongoing commitment to Thrive is truly invaluable and greatly appreciated. 🌟💚

Join us on Saturday 27 June for our Open Garden event at Thrive Birmingham 🌿

Set within our beautiful two acre site in Kings Heath, this is a wonderful opportunity to spend time in nature, explore the gardens and meet our friendly team. You will also be able to learn more about how gardening can support health and wellbeing.

There is something for everyone to enjoy, wildlife trails for children, a plant sale and tea, coffee and homemade cakes.

Every ticket helps support our Birmingham Appeal, helping more people experiencing poor mental health, isolation and disadvantage to reconnect, recover and grow.

🕥 Time: 10.30am to 2pm
🎟️ Entry: £5 per adult, children free (also available on the door)

We would love to welcome you for a relaxing and inspiring day in the garden.
