🌻SOCIAL & THERAPEUTIC HORTICULTURE💐

INTRODUCTORY DAY.... 7️⃣th NOV 2020

We have only 5 available places left for this Intro Day...

Festina Lente One Day Introductory Workshop to Social and Therapeutic Horticulture (STH) Workshop Saturday 7th November 2020

Would you like to learn how the use of horticultural activities and garden landscapes can promote the social, emotional and physical well-being of young people, teenagers and adults?. Would you like to learn more about how increasingly the use of STH is being used by a wide range of educational and health care providers? And would you like to experience a sample of social and therapeutic activities ?

If so, we have just the workshop for you.

Social and therapeutic horticultural benefits people with many different disabilities, including those recovering from stroke and heart disease, blind and partially sighted people, those in the early stages of dementia, and people with physical, mental health and learning disabilities. Organised STH programmes have been shown to increase self-esteem and self-confidence therapeutic, develop social and work skills, improve literacy and numeracy skills, increase general well-being and promote social interaction.

This One Day Introductory Workshop will introduce you to the history and theoretical frameworks which underpin the effectiveness of social and therapeutic horticulture. It will also allow you to sample a number of both passive and active STH activities.

Our first workshop in 2020 is “An introduction into Social and Therapeutic Horticulture” and it is in Festina Lente Gardens on Saturday 7th Nov 2020 from 9:30am to 4:00pm.

Workshop fee is €95 and we have a limit of 10 spaces. The workshop will be delivered through a combination of classroom based and garden based learning approaches.
