Redwall Walled Garden...
Offers a safe environment for people to learn to deal with the challenges of recovering from enduring mental health problems.
Redwall Walled Garden is a therapeutic horticulture project in Edinburgh based in a beautiful walled garden. We work to improve mental health from gardening and outdoor activities as well as offering a supportive environment to progress computer skills and employability. Our service offers placements to adults living in within the City of Edinburgh who have diagnosed mental health problems. Participants come to the garden 3-days per week and are paired with a key worker to help achieve positive next steps in their recovery.
Redwall Walled Garden is open to public Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 4:30pm.
How to find us...
We're on the Lanark Road - heading from the city centre take the Lothian Buses number 44 and get off at Redhall View. Follow the wee track down to the walled garden in a stunning situation by the Water of Leith.
