Trinity's Urban Garden (TUG)

Urban Garden Year

Trinity's Urban Garden is a student-led space on Trinity's College Green campus (near Sport, location here) where you can grow fruit and veg using novel gardening techniques.

Get in touch if you'd like to meet other students, try out gardening, help to grow interesting plants and flowers and get involved in sustainable gardening practices, climate action and biodiversity preservation.

Trinity's Urban Garden was set up in summer 2022 by a group of student activists, using the Provost's COP26 Climate Change fund.

All welcome. To get involved:

Abridged Trinity Urban Garden Timeline

Workplace wellbeing is important because workplaces directly influence the physical, mental, economic and social wellbeing of workers and in turn, the health of their families, communities and society. Staff wellbeing drives an organisation's long-term effectiveness which is recognised in Trinity's Strategic Plan under Priority 2:

“…we are deeply committed to sustainability in terms of how we live as a community, and we will continue to find new and creative ways to make our world fairer, healthier and more sustainable, whether it is in our adoption of sustainable commuting and working practices, or how we invest”,

and under point 8.7: Encourage the physical, mental and social health of the whole College community through implementation of the Healthy Trinity initiative. [HT]

Staff wellbeing initiatives and facilities support the achievement of Trinity's strategic goals by working towards the provision of a workplace where staff can thrive, achieve their full potential and excel together.
