Children in Burgess Hill are about to discover the excitement of growing their own plants thanks to a donation from a Sussex charity.

Windmills Opportunity Playgroup, at Sheddingdean, have been given plants, seeds, pots, troughs, watering cans and compost; everything they need to create a sensory growing garden.

The donation was made possible by The Budding Foundation who worked with South Downs Nurseries in Hassocks to source all the materials.

The charity’s founder, Clive Gravett, said he can’t wait to see how the tiny ‘green fingers’ get on creating their special outdoor space.

He formed the charity in 2013 and works to raise funds to improve the lives of young people across Sussex, especially those who have suffered social deprivation, trauma or disability.
