Flower Pod Newark is sited on approximately two acres of land in Hawtonville near Newark. We recently took over this beautiful community garden, which includes two ponds, polytunnels, a small orchard, vegetable and flower beds, fruit bushes and other interesting features. The site offers an accessible space where people with learning disabilities can take part in gardening related learning and social activities, make new friends, enjoy outdoor activity and learn new skills as well as have opportunity for supported volunteering and mentoring.

Christine Daniels
Flower Pod Newark Centre Manager
After many years working in the Food Manufacturing Industry and teaching Food Technology at Nottingham Trent University, I am very happy to be here at Reach as the Flower Pod Newark Centre Manager.
We have a wonderful space here at Flower Pod Newark where we can enjoy some peace and tranquillity as well as learning about what how rewarding it can be to get food to grow.
I’m particularly looking forward to working with our clients to help them to build confidence, enjoyment and understand the benefit of gardening, physical activity and being outdoors. All exciting stuff! Watch this space…
