A West Lothian garden centre is helping Livingston’s green spaces blossom this spring with the return of its much-loved HelpingYour Community Grow initiative, with an enhanced sustainability focus for 2022.

For 2022, Dobbies is seeking local groups striving to help their community space flourish in a sustainable way.

HelpingYour Community Grow is calling for local groups from all over Livingston to get in touch through an application form via Dobbies’website, showcasing their community space that needs some attention and what they plan to do if they receive Dobbies’support.

A successful group will be given advice, products and time to help transform their outdoor spaces, using their sustainable product ranges wherever possible. This could include peat-free compost, recycled and recyclable pots, UK-sourced plants and safer pest control products.

Graeme Jenkins, CEO of Dobbies said: “Community is at the forefront of what we do at Dobbies and we’re proud to be relaunching our HelpingYour Community Grow initiative again this spring. We had a brilliant variety of applications last year in Livingston and it was great to see local community spaces, school vegetable patches and memorial gardens benefit from our support.

“This year we are particularly keen to hear from projects in Livingston who have a sustainable focus to their work and our teams will share their knowledge of sustainable products and practices, to ensure a truly eco-friendly approach.”

Applications are now open until March 25. For more information on how to take part, visit HelpingYour Community Grow | Dobbies Garden Centres.
