Better health and wellbeing for all through nature

Lindengate is a multi-award winning Nature based Health and Wellbeing Charity based in Wendover, Bucks, at the foot of the Chiltern Hills. Since 2014, and with the support of over 200 volunteers, Lindengate has transformed from a disused allotment site with 2 metre high nettles, to a unique 6 acre secret garden with a Nature Reserve, Ponds, Heritage Orchard, Kitchen Garden and Sensory Garden with sculptures and heritage-based art hidden across the site. Add to this, 2 Gold Award winning exhibits from RHS Chelsea and a community of volunteers and staff who nurture a supportive, inclusive and safe environment and it is a welcome haven for all. Don’t just take our word for it, we were awarded the Green Flag Community Award in 2022, the international quality mark for parks and green spaces.

All activities are nature based, including site interaction walks (seasonal), nature-based arts and crafts (willow weaving/using natural materials from the site etc), kitchen gardening, plant care/self-care, volunteering, conservation, propagation, plant identification, mapping and more! Our underlying ethos is to protect and enhance the natural environment resulting in projects spanning around many of our endangered flower and tree species. Upcycling and recycling are also factored into our woodworking projects.
