Wellbeing At Garon Park is a CIO with the purpose of providing sustainable facilities that can be used to improve local health and wellbeing, as well as enhancing the beauty, biodiversity and environmental value of the 30-acre Garon Park site in Southend on Sea.
The anchor feature is the wellbeing trail which includes multipurpose pathways for cycling, running, walking and wheelchair access. The trail will be used by 100s and act as a hub for community and wellbeing initiatives, including the Nature and Art Trails. There will be path seating and shelters at feature points around the wellbeing site for:
Rest and reflection
Enjoyment of vista points
Relaxation in the Sensory Garden
Enjoyment of the Nature Pond
We also plan to develop:
A Nature School
A Community Garden for gardening experiences, achievement and social interaction
An Orchard majoring on native Essex species of fruit trees
An Outdoor Gym
An Arts & Crafts centre
For those wanting to develop their practical woodworking skills we have the Garon Park Shed open and ready for use. And, of course, our Clubhouse will be open for all those who want to meet and seat!
