In partnership with Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council, we have developed an Armed Forces Community Garden in Hillfield Park, Solihull.
Since opening to the public in July 2021, thousands of people have visited the garden.
And with the Government lifting remaining Covid restrictions, a special event for the local community will be held on Friday 20 May 2022.
Members of the Armed Forces will be joined by representatives of RBL and Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council to officially open the gardens, and it will be a fantastic opportunity for residents, schools and the wider community to celebrate the project.
For news and updates on the event, follow our West Midlands Facebook and Twitter feeds.
Exploring the gardens
The concept behind the garden is one of ‘healing habitats’.
It is an eco-therapy project which comprises a series of therapeutic natural habitats for people to explore.
These habitats aim to improve bio-diversity and provide opportunities to improve and maintain the wellbeing of the armed forces community through nature-based activities.
