Help with your garden

Are you unable to get your garden done? We may be able to help.

Your tenancy agreement says that you must make sure your garden is tidy. If the garden is overgrown - and there is no good reason why you can't do it - we can clear it and charge you for the work. But we know that it may be difficult for people who are not physically capable of doing the work themselves. So we can do free gardening every month between March and October for some people who:

  • have a disability, or are elderly; and
  • can't afford to pay a gardener; and
  • have no-one else who can do it for them.

If you meet the qualifications above - or have another very good reason why you can't do the work - we will come and visit you within ten working days if applying. We will let you know what we can do, and when we'll do it.
