The Well of Wellbeing
As part of New Leaf’s conscious social responsibility, Becky wanted to create a place of wellbeing that people could visit and engage with. Whilst following a babbling brook near the side of a lane on a steep hill, she stumbled upon a long-forgotten well house obscured by brambles in the corner of a field near Cothelstone. Backed by grants from the Quantock Hills Sustainable Development Fund, the Heritage Lottery Fund and the local council, Becky partnered with the Huntspill Project and Bridgwater College to engage and benefit local young people from the experience of conserving this local landmark, working on its restoration and communicating its provenance to visitors.
Rural Life Design Project
Wanting to increase our service offer to SMEs and develop a rural mental health service, we required a site to operate from that met with the needs of our clients. With grants available to help small rural enterprises flourish, our Rural Life Design Project was supported by the European Union ‘Leader’ programme for rural business.
