Safeguarding & Complaints
Commitment to Safe Spaces:
The Gaskell Garden Project is committed to our core value of inclusivity and will take a zero tolerance approach to language or behaviour that is racist, sexist, homophobic, threatening or violent, that could cause offence to a volunteer/visitor/member with a disability as well as any other individual that feels harassed, bullied or discriminated against.
This policy is applicable to our whole Project, whether an individual or a volunteer/member/Board Member/Director within the Gaskell Garden Project.
This is a safe and welcoming space for LGBTQ+
For any complaints and reporting of any incidents towards the breaching of your and others safety please email
Board and Directors
As a Community Interest Company, we have six registered directors to the project with a board of 15 members. The board meets once every two months. Meetings are open to all members, and they can be called by any member. We believe in a non-hierarchical autonomous way towards running the project. In GGP leadership and autonomy is encouraged to empower everyone within the project to make decisions and work together respectfully. As a project, we have certain individuals coordinating certain areas, but all members are fluid and involved in multiple areas of interest and these roles are always up for change. We support each other in these roles through collective effort sharing tasks, encouraging our strengths, and positively challenging one another to learn new things.
Communications
We have a shared platform we all chat and organise activities and projects from Whatsapp Community. If you are wanting to be a part of regular communications send us an email and we can add you to the groups!!
