Midlothian Community Hospital Gardens

We have two beautiful Community Gardens that we run in partnership with NHS Lothian - Royal Edinburgh Community Hospital garden and Midlothian Community Hospital garden. Both gardens are open every day to members of the public, with volunteer and groupwork programmes running on weekdays.

Our teams deliver gardening outreach sessions on hospital wards across Edinburgh and the Lothians. We also provide placement opportunities for students in Allied Health Care settings, Horticulture, Garden Design and Outdoor Education.

At the Community Gardens we focus on welcoming people experiencing mental or physical health problems, disadvantage, isolation or poverty.
