A SENSORY and edible garden is helping people struggling with their mental health.
The facility has been provided at the Airedale Centre for Mental Health, in Steeton.
Funding was received from Bradford District Care NHS Foundation Trust's iCare innovation development programme.
Behind the initiative is occupational therapist Beth Chesworth.
She says: "The garden is packed with plenty of fruit and vegetables, which patients can take the time to grow.
"The project supports the mental health and wellbeing of the patients, who benefit from being in nature and taking pride in cultivating their own plants.
"Our horticultural groups have been credited with improving people's mood and inspiring others to engage in nature-based activities."
The iCare programme aims to help care trust staff turn ideas into reality.
