Bloom & Connect: Greening our Community

Ozanam House has launched a crowdfunding project with the goal of transforming our community centre into a greener space — featuring indoor plants and a peaceful outdoor garden. This initiative will bring beauty, wellness, and biodiversity to our vibrant centre.

🌷 Indoor plants will improve air quality and atmosphere across our rooms, while the outdoor garden will serve as a tranquil retreat and a place for hands-on gardening. For those without personal green space, it offers a chance to connect with nature.

🌵 We’ll source plants, planters, tools, and decorative items through local suppliers and donations, focusing on sustainability and community collaboration. Members will be directly involved in planting and maintaining the spaces.

🌳 Any remaining funds will support biodiversity. Together, we’ll grow a space of beauty, belonging, and well-being.
