KEEN are an award-winning youth-led organisation. They create inclusive projects, and support and promote inclusion in Oxfordshire. The KEEN participants are a group of children and young people with a wide range of disabilities - they love gardening and allotment sessions provide benefits to their wellbeing, time outside and the chance to gain new skills and new friends.

The KEEN team are unable to take on the more physically demanding tasks necessary to prepare the allotment for the 2024 growing season, so they called in the GoodGym flash mob to help.

We've never been to the Elder Stubbs allotment site before, so it was lovely to see the Restore and KEEN plots as well as the fun driftwood sculptures. The main task for the evening was to weed the vegetable beds and dig them over a bit ready to receive the seedlings ready to go in the ground which are currently housed at KEEN's base near South Park.

An hour and many mozzie bites later we'd made a significant difference to weed quantities, which will allow KEEN to get participants in to start gardening as soon as possible!
