Dom and Darren mounted their bikes to deliver spring planting materials to adult carers in Woodthorpe, Southbank and Bishopthorpe in time for a themed Zoom session.

The project is aimed at helping carers to maintain their own wellbeing by providing a session on seed planting and an activity which they can do either on their own for a break form their caring, or with the person they care for. Carers have found the pandemic incredibly stressful and these sessions are a way of providing some connection with one another whilst enabling those who are anxious or unable to go out and meet in person.
