Green Health Prescribing with Cyrenians: A

A joined the Cyrenians Community Gardens as a Green Activity Buddy in 2024, volunteering every Wednesday with both the morning and afternoon groups. While studying for her MSc in Environmental Protection, she brought a gentle, attentive presence that was deeply appreciated by everyone she supported.
A’s story remains a lovely example of how the project created space to connect, grow, and make a difference.
Green Health Prescribing with Cyrenians: K
K has been a regular at the Cyrenians Community Gardens since May 2022 – in fact, he’s never missed a session. He started out working one-to-one with a buddy, but as his confidence grew, so did his connections. These days, he’s happiest working alongside others as part of a small group.
K’s story is a wonderful example of how the gardens offered a space to build confidence, make friends, and feel part of something.
