Braddan Parish Commissioners operate two community gardens and we are always looking for members of our community to get involved and help out.
Coronation Community Garden
Coronation Community Garden was originally a children’s playground located at Coronation Terrace at the Strang.
When the play equipment was removed, Braddan Parish Commissioners provided funding to turn the space into an allotment.
More information can be found on our Coronation Community Garden Facebook Page.
The Sensory Garden
The Sensory Garden at The Roundhouse will open in Spring 2024.
We are actively looking for volunteers to help plant and maintain the Sensory Garden – please get in touch if you’d like to know more.
