GL Communities runs a unique project at the Gloucester motorway service station on the M5.  Our growing project is a collaboration between the charity and Westmoreland, which operates the services; Westmoreland is committed to supporting the area in which it is based by employing local people, sourcing produce from within a thirty mile radius and donating part of its profits to the community.

The Growing Project gives volunteers an opportunity to work outdoors and to nurture plants and food.
