MEMBERS STATEMENT

‘LITTLE BRIGHTON RESERVE COMMUNITY GARDEN’.

Wednesday, 26 August 2026

Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (09:46):

Following community advocacy in 2022, the Little Brighton Reserve Community Garden was established in Union Street, Brighton East.

Led by Helen Gries, the garden has bloomed from a bud of an idea Helen first shared with me in her kitchen.

We recently met to plan our plant, and Helen shared wonderful stories like meeting her husband after her car broke down in front of his business.
