The Impact of Our Work

As a small organisation with only 3.7 Full Time Equivalent staff, we do mighty things with your donations.  In the last 12 months we have made a real difference to the lives of thousands of disabled and disadvantaged people, enabling them to garden with the help of practitioners trained and supported by Trellis.
