Incredible Edible Cloughmills, which won the People’s Choice Award, provides an allotment in the village, to enable the local residents to plant their own fruit and vegetables.
Patrick Frew, who is the Chair of the project, says: “The community wanted a place where they could learn to grow their own produce, and take time out to relax and reflect. We took a wasted space and transformed it into a place where the community can thrive.
