| Annotation | Supporting the gardening needs of older people is not just about helping them to `cope', there are numerous benefits - physical, mental or social - available through gardening activities of various kinds. These guidelines arising from HT (Horticultural Therapy) research funded by Charity Projects, detail what some these benefits are, give pointers on how they can be attained, and suggest who should take the lead in propagating the work.
