little dobbies launches Dobbies Community Gardens today to offer support for community and charity groups across Bristol to help transform, restore or start their indoor or outdoor green spaces.

Committed to bringing a smile to its local communities, little dobbies is inviting anyone who has a community space that needs gardening knowledge and inspiration – indoors or outdoors – to get in touch, with applications now open.

little dobbies' colleagues are passionate about gardens and plants, championing garden living all year round to create experiences that bring people and communities together. The Clifton little dobbies store will select a project to support from the nominations that are made. The winning groups will receive products, tools and plants to help bring their community space to life during a personal-shopper session with a dedicated little dobbies' colleague. In addition to this, there will be volunteer hours allocated to help bring the project to fruition.

Successful applicants will receive support over the year to keep their indoor or outdoor space blooming.

Nick Anderson, Dobbies' Operations Director, is looking forward to hearing from groups across the country. He said:

"There are so many brilliant community groups near our Clifton little dobbies store – from schools and nurseries, to In Bloom Groups and charities, and even local sports teams. Our store colleagues are ready to take on a fresh challenge for this year and we want to hear from groups across Bristol who would benefit from our support.

"If anyone knows of a community group that has a garden living project in need of our help, please encourage them to enter."

Applications are now open and taking part couldn't be easier. Those entering must be located within 5 miles of the Clifton little dobbies store. For more information about how to get involved in Dobbies Community Gardens, visit Dobbies Community Gardens

The Clifton little dobbies store will contact the winner to arrange a suitable time to meet with a colleague that will support them throughout the project.
