SAGE Sheffield

Support – Arts – Gardening- Education

SAGE provides therapeutic arts and horticulture programmes for any adults whose lives have been affected by their mental health.

About SAGE

SAGE helps promote wellbeing by providing meaningful activities in a welcoming environment. We like to find out what our members enjoy, and offer support and encouragement where needed.

On the allotment we have raised beds and accessible paths for easier access. The allotment groups conclude with a cooked lunch using home grown produce.

SAGE members will meet new friends and find a welcoming community, give and receive support, and find respite from life’s problems. 

What do our members say about SAGE?

It’s been so good to get out together. I really value these trips. It helps build friendships.

It’s been a really happy day. Thanks so much – I really needed it!

It’s just brilliant having chance to get a away from it all in nature.

Our Groups

Greenfingers

Learn new skills whilst enjoying the outdoors in our therapeutic, horticultural group: Greenfingers. We also offer healthy meals and art activities - as well as the chance to talk to volunteers and other members.

Singing Through the Seasons

Feel uplifted whilst you sing away the blues. In this safe space our members have the opportunity to learn simple songs and socialise during our break.

Plot 66

Plot 66 is our follow-up group from Greenfingers, for members who wish to remain part of the SAGE community and have found a love of gardening whilst working on the allotment.

"SAGE is a place to make friends and build your confidence"

Greenfingers Poem by Katria

I like the gardening, When the weather is fine, When the grass is green, When the tree is greenish, When the crops are ready to eat.

Singing Through the Seasons Poem

I like when the weather is mild, I like when people are chatting and chatting again and again, I like when people are moving and moving on.
