Urban Trailblazer was formed to tackle growing loneliness and food poverty in Ealing, particularly focussing upon older people and those with disabilities. They will do this by sharing the garden space of their clients to grow fruits, vegetables, nuts, flowers, and mushrooms. Once harvested, this food will go to their client base and any surplus will be distributed to those in need within the community.
They also use their own allotment space to train their vulnerable client group in basic gardening skills to work or volunteer, in order to keep creating produce. In all that they do, they work to create a healthy environment, progress biodiversity and cleaner air.
