Tenants Gardening Maintenance Scheme
The Tenants Gardening Maintenance Scheme is a service provided by the Volunteer Centre Sutton in partnership with the Council to assist our elderly and less able tenants maintain their gardens.
Volunteer Centre Sutton has provided the current scheme since April 2003. All properties accepted onto the scheme receive a visit every 4 –5 weeks during April to September and will get the grass and hedges cut to the front and rear gardens if necessary.

 
During 2005 the gardening service was provided to 300 tenants who benefited from over 3,200 grass / hedge cuts. In addition, there are 30 tenants on the waiting list who received one visit during the winter to help keep their gardens under control.
In order to be considered for the scheme tenants must meet all the following criteria

  • Be 75 years of age or over, or registered disabled with London Borough of Sutton
  • Be in receipt of Housing Benefit
  • Have no-one under the age of 75 living at the property
If you wish to be considered for the scheme, please contact the Volunteer Centre Sutton on 02087704856 for an application form. Please bear in mind this is a very popular scheme and already has a waiting list for the service.
