Bespoke social and therapeutic horticultural interventions, training and consultancy SOWING SUCCESS was initially established in 2000 by Simon Read.
SOWING SUCCESS is a small enterprise with expertise in social and therapeutic horticulture, specialising in bespoke interventions, training and consultancy work. We have a proven track record throughout the North West of the UK and throughout the country. Simon combined his horticultural expertise and extensive experience of working with people in a person-centred approach to develop social and th
erapeutic interventions. Through the medium of plants, SOWING SUCCESS aims to aid and assist individuals and groups with additional support needs through transitional stages in their lives. Social and therapeutic horticulture is the mindful use of horticultural activity to promote health and wellbeing; it is fast becoming recognised by many sectors as an exceptional medium to engage people and promote social inclusion. There is an increasing evidence base of its effectiveness as an intervention for people with a range of additional support needs, from mental health to learning difficulties and from physical disability to trauma recovery. Social and therapeutic horticulture has the ability to transform lives; by using plants, horticulture and near nature programmes, SOWING SUCCESS passionately believes we can help you and your project to increase wellbeing, skills, enjoyment and success. We at SOWING SUCCESS have seen first-hand the benefits an active involvement in gardening, through social and therapeutic horticulture programmes, can make. The range of outcomes include: connecting with others and so a reduction of social isolation and exclusion, improved physical and mental health, the acquisition of new vocational, leisure and social skills and an increased sense of purpose and wellbeing. SOWING SUCCESS has a passion for gardening and our team would like to share their experience by helping others. We have a particular expertise in leading planned, focused and targeted social and therapeutic horticulture sessions, which can enrich both the formal curriculum of mainstream schools and the social and emotional programmes in specialist educational provisions. We also have a proven proficiency in delivering specialist advice and services to a diverse range of social, health and welfare organisations, such as residential settings, hospices and hospitals. SOWING SUCCESS offer a full range of services, delivering activities as well as consultancy and horticultural advice and CPD training, to schools, care homes and hospices. Our aim is help organisations by using social and therapeutic horticulture to develop, enhance and enrich their outdoor spaces and amenities, and to provide personal and professional advice on how to get near to nature. If you are in need of specialised horticultural advice from a dedicated team of experts, then SOWING SUCCESS can help. Whether it be creating a specific programme and providing you with the knowledge and passion to move your project forward or to help you create a safe and comfortable gardening environment within your grounds, SOWING SUCCESS will nurture all your horticultural needs and sow the seeds to help your project grow.
