Frank's Story - Accessible Gardening Solutions for Frank
Published on 11 November 2025 10:57 AM
We would like to share Frank's story, which showcases the tremendous impact Active Living Support Services had on Frank's life.
The gardening team supported Frank so he could reconnect with his garden; creating accessible solutions that helped boost his mental health, enhanced his self-esteem, while providing physical exercise and an re-connection to his neighbours - combatting isolation through a shared vegetable plot.

Thanks to Jeff Miur (Age UK Cornwall, Lead Gardener), the Gardening team, and Frank for sharing your story.
