About the charity
Forest Farm Peace Garden is dedicated to promoting health and wellbeing, environmental sustainability and building community through activities in nature at our therapeutic garden. Our main objectives, as set out in the Governing Document, are: _
1) To preserve and protect the mental and physical health of the wider community and in particular those experiencing mental health support needs and refugees and asylum seekers, through the provision of organic gardening opportunities, conservation based activities, education and one to one support.
2) To preserve, protect, and improve the natural environment; in particular through organic gardening, permaculture, conservation, and other ecologically sound practices.
3) To foster a genuinely diverse and integrated community through the elimination of discrimination on the grounds of: age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation by promoting activities to foster understanding between people from diverse backgrounds,
Achievements for the year
The charity continued to provide a high-quality therapeutic intervention to support mental health recovery. We have run twice weekly ecotherapy garden days and a weekly general garden maintenance day throughout this 4 period, as well as a range of engaging workshops and events for the community, such as our open day, which was very well attended.
In January, we received funding for day trips to other nature sites. We were able to bring supported volunteers on special walks to a variety of nature destinations, including to Claybury Forest to do a bluebells walk in April, and a trip to Kew garden in May. We also brought them to autumnal Hainault forest last November.
In March this year we received funding to build a sensory labyrinth for people taking part in our activities, which will be carried out in 2025/26.
In addition, in April this year, City Bridge Foundation renewed their funding with us for an additional 12 months.
We were approved for a second year programme to provide an additional garden therapy day for young women which is running weekly.
We have been running a new healthy growing, cooking, and eating programme funded by the NHS which is open to the community. The project continues until 31st of March 2026.

Ecotherapy Programme
Our ecotherapy programme continues to support recovery and improved wellbeing for people experiencing mental ill health, stress, anxiety, isolation and people who are disabled by social or environmental barriers,
During the year, the ecotherapy programme received 49 referrals from a wide range of referral agencies and organisations including GP surgeries, North East London NHS Foundation Trust, social prescribers and local charities, Following these referrals, 21 people joined the programme. Four people completed the full year on the . programme, while others stayed for varying lengths of time depending on their own needs and circumstances,
We also welcomed additional participants who took part in therapeutic activities in the garden, including participants from Inclusive Communities and Regrowth Redbridge (ROAMHT).
Our team of 20 buddy volunteers continued to provide vital support across the programme. Buddies are trained in safeguarding adults, mental health awareness and practical gardening skills. They offer social connection, encouragement and hands-on assistance to supported volunteers, helping to create a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment. In April 2025, we trained six new buddies who joined the team and strengthened our capacity to provide one-to-one support during group horticultural activities.

Evaluation
Our 2024 end of year evaluation involved conducting focus groups with ecotherapy participants and buddy volunteers, a health and wellbeing survey, case study interviews and monitoring data. The results from the health and wellbeing survey for ecotherapy participants can be seen in the graph below:

The wellbeing measurement results for 2024 are positive and statistically significant, with the largest improvements seen in people’s feelings of usefulness and connection to others.
Some quotes this year from people who have benefited from our ecotherapy programme:
“My ability to socialise more outside. I'm trying to maybe communicate with a lot more people, because atfirst, I would not want to be where a lot ofpeople are. A crowd looksfrightening. Coming to FFPG has really been helpful.”
“My mood improved significantly coming to the garden. Itfeels like an escape from work and other stresses - a bit like Narnia but out in the open! I have been better at managing stressful situations - I try to be kinder to myself and do helpful distractions such as goingfor a walk or going in the back garden to feel calmer.”
“I think I'm trying to get maybe an open mind now, afree mind and once in a while I'm able to because I'm relating with others. I'm able to communicate with them a little. It is making me more open. What enables this is thatthat's I'moneconnecting big thing.” directlyfirst with nature, then with people I know people too, are part ofnature, butI think Alongside the improved mental health outcomes observed in participants in our activities, we continue to see a strong progression pathway for those who engage with the programme. Many supported volunteers and participants take on increasing responsibilities and explore new opportunities within the garden. A recent example includes one participant who will be performing with her band at our upcoming open day, demonstrating the confidence and personal growth fostered through involvement with FFPG.
Events and workshops
This year we expanded our range of educational, culinary, creative and wellbeing workshops and talks at our garden sessions or community events, including winter and summer fruit-tree pruning, wild food foraging, journaling in nature workshops, wood working, wreath-making, and a new healthy cooking workshop. As well as providing a fun group activity, these workshops also enable participants to gain confidence and new skills.

Directors' Report (incorporating the Trustees' Annual Report) (continued) for the Year Ended 30 June 2025
The first was our 20th anniversary party. It was great to see so many people there, both old and new, These include the original founders, staff, trustees and volunteers, Thanks to all those who made the effort to attend (often from very far away) and to those that gave their time to help.
Last autumn 2024 we once again held our annual Abundance Day, where we involved the community in our apple harvest, making juice and selling other items we have made with produce from the garden, In May this year we secured funding from the Greater London Authority to have a fully funded Abundance Day in Autumn 2025.
We have been hosting quarterly foraging workshops with our ethnobotanist volunteer Aaron, which we sell tickets to,
Garden and site development
We continued to improve the garden and to maintain our large fruit orchard. We grew a range of vegetable and salad crops in our annual beds and polytunnel.
The garden had great help from our Monday maintenance volunteers to keep the site well cared for and looking good, We worked on ongoing repairs and site improvements throughout the year.
Organisational development
We have planned a trustee strategy day in July 2025 to review actions from the organisational review, check off completed projects and set priorities for the year ahead, both in the garden and in the organisation. The day will be supported by an external facilitator.
Partnerships
We continued to strengthen and broaden our partnerships across the health, social care and community sectors. These relationships play a central role in enabling people to access our ecotherapy programme and in ensuring that FFPG remains a trusted and valued resource in Redbridge.
Our long-standing partnership with North East London NHS Foundation Trust remained a key referral pathway, with social prescribers, community mental health teams and occupational therapy teams regularly directing individuals to our garden. During the year, we developed new links with NHS Occupational Therapy and Older Adults teams, as well as staff working in supported living and assisted living services in the borough.
We also continued to collaborate with a range of community-based organisations, including Colours of Redbridge, the Department for Work and Pensions, Riverside Court, Inclusive Communities and Regrowth Redbridge (ROAMHT), who bring their groups to participate in therapeutic gardening sessions. These partnerships help widen access to nature-based support for people who may not otherwise be able to engage with outdoor activities.
Our partnership with the Children and Adolescent Mental Health Team (CAMHS) remained strong, and their support enabled us to run the young women’s Green Shoots programme for a second year. Their agreement to reallocate underspend to extend this programme demonstrates confidence in our work and the positive impact it has on young people.
Collectively, these partnerships ensure that FFPG is well integrated within local referral networks, trusted by frontline professionals and valued by organisations seeking meaningful, nature-based support for their clients. They also strengthen our ability to reach people who face barriers to participation and ensure we are meeting community needs in a responsive and collaborative way.
,
Communications
We maintained regular posts on our social media Facebook page, which has retained its following. We continue to send out regular e-newsletters to all subscribers. We produced new flyers about our services and activities and attended various outreach events, The Director writes a monthly article for the local free newspaper. We have started actively using our Instagram account again and have a project in the pipeline for our TikTok account.

Funding
Our major funder the City Bridge Foundation renewed our grant for another 12 months in April, totalling £28,900 for core funding over the next year.
We are into our second year of funding from the National Lottery, which totals £150,000 over three years.
Garfield Weston awarded us £10,000 of unrestricted income in December 2024 for one year.
;
There were also smaller funds received from Greater London Authority (Mayor’s Community Fund), Bentley, the National Garden Scheme, and the Co-operative Community Fund.
We would like to thank all those who help us to continue our work with their kind support.
Staff and trustee team
During the year, there were several changes in the Director role. Karen Smatlwood resigned as Director in December 2024 due to retirement and the trustees would like to express their thanks for her contribution to the organisation. Rosalin Agnew was appointed as Director in February 2025 and led the charity through the remainder of the financial year.
Following the year end, Rosalin Agnew resigned from the Director role in August 2025 to pursue a doctorate. We. are grateful to Rosalin for her work and commitment during this period. In the same month, Pieter Rossouw resigned as a trustee and was appointed as Director.
Jackie Hearn resigned her position as trustee in January 2025. Alan Lieng was appointed Treasurer in February 2025:
Due to the expansion of our programmes, we hired one new sessional staff member during the year to provide additional capacity alongside our existing sessional staff. There were no changes to gardening or ecotherapy staff,
Risk
As with most small charities the risks are to maintain a healthy income and a steady flow of people accessing our activities. At the moment there is no concern in these areas, with the income from a National Lottery grant and new grant with the NHS, the Mayor’s Community Fund, and the National Garden Scheme. In addition, we received a record number of referrals in June.
Financial performance
The charity received income of £108,895 (2024: £103,607) of which £99,379 (2024; £97,143) was restricted income grants from charitable trusts and foundations. Expenditure was £90,241 (2024: £81,907). The Director continues to make progress to increase the income through both large and smaller funds, events, and community fundraising. The trustees regard this as a satisfactory financial performance for the year.
The charity's policy on reserves
Forest Farm Peace Garden will hold whenever possible a minimum reserve of three months’ and a maximum of six months' running costs in unrestricted funds. This is to serve as a safeguard against any unexpected shortfall or increase in expenditure.
At 30 June 2025, the charity held £7,544 in unrestricted reserves (2024: £275), These amounts are shown in the Statement of Financial Activities,
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. The directors (trustees) declare that they have approved the directors' report above.
