SAMH - Redhall Walled Garden

SAMH - Redhall Walled Garden is a tranquil oasis in Edinburgh, Scotland

SAMH (Scotland's Mental Health charity) transformed the neglected Redhall Walled Garden into a therapeutic space promoting mental wellbeing. Spanning over an acre, the garden features various themed areas, such as the sensory garden, the greenhouse, and the courtyard. The garden is wheelchair accessible and offers a serene environment for relaxation, reflection, and learning. SAMH's mission is to provide a safe and supportive space for individuals dealing with mental health issues, offering horticultural therapy sessions, gardening workshops, and mindfulness classes. The garden also serves as an educational resource for schools, groups, and individuals interested in mental health and wellbeing. The garden's success led to the creation of the Social Enterprise Hub, which provides training, work experience, and employment opportunities for people facing barriers to employment. The Hub offers a range of services, including catering, gardening, and retail, all aimed at fostering skills, confidence, and independence. Located just a few miles south of Edinburgh city center, the SAMH - Redhall Walled Garden is a must-visit destination for locals and tourists alike, offering a unique blend of horticulture, mental health awareness, and community support.
