Speaker biography
Jan Cameron - Author
I have spent a lifetime working in therapeutic/ community gardens. Originally trained in community work, the group work emphasis of that training has stood me in good stead. I wrote The Garden Cure to try to capture the wisdom of all the people I have worked and learned with so that it could be passed on to others to help in times when they might be struggling with their health.
