Seed2Plate is collaborating with EMA (Employ My Ability) to enable young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities to acquire new skills, improve their mental health, give back to the local community and build an enterprise across Dorset. However, this project is now at risk and your support is needed.
Seed2Plate is an established Dorset Community Action programme, currently enabling young people at EMA and other locations to grow through horticulture.
“In late 2024, a shift in government priorities led to the loss of vital funding for the Seed2Plate project, which supports young people with special education needs and disabilities. With the closure of the National Citizenship Service, young people will be left without opportunities to develop their independence, transition into adulthood and build pathways to employment. We need your help to bridge this gap. Your support—whether through donations or simply spreading the word—can make a real difference in ensuring these young people continue to thrive. Together, we can keep this life-changing project alive. Thank you for caring.” – Paul Seaman, DCA Programme Manager
