Baringa Partners teams up with Time to Green to create a planting space for Ealing Hospital.
Baringa Partners teamed up with gardening and landscaping social enterprise, Time to Green to create a planting space for fruit and vegetables in support of a growing scheme based at Ealing Hospital. Baringa organised for a team to complete the project as part its fourth company charity day since launching the scheme in 2009.
The site at Brent Lodge Park in Ealing had formally been used as a goat enclosure before being gifted to the hospital-based social enterprise by The Animal Centre.

Baringa also improved the entrance to the site with an arbour.
