Overview
The Umbrella Group is for anyone wishing to get to know others and wanting to take part in gardening or indoor activities. We aim particularly to encourage those who for whatever reason may be socially isolated and offer an opportunity to make friends and share skills. The groups are run by regular volunteers and aim to be inclusive and offer fun and friendship and increase community participation.
