Volunteers from the sports club worked alongside the Wildlife Trust to clear litter, create pathways and new structures, and plant a mix of flowers, shrubs, and trees inspired by Caribbean heritage.
One volunteer said the project had “given me a new lease of life – a reason to get up in the morning”.
The club has also established a community allotment and installed educational signage, and plans for the upcoming year include creating bird boxes, hedgehog homes, a wildflower meadow, and additional planting areas.
The garden has been shortlisted for three awards, including a King’s Award for Voluntary Services and a Sheffield Lord Mayor’s Award.
