Roots helps people grow, heal, and thrive

SIG Penrose Roots is our award-winning community-based recovery service supporting over 600 people annually across Luton and Bedfordshire. Through therapeutic growing spaces, sustainability workshops, and peer-support groups, we provide accessible platforms for people facing isolation and complex health challenges.

Our members have lived experience of social isolation, trauma, mental ill-health, substance use, learning disabilities, or involvement with the criminal justice system. For many, attending Roots is their only opportunity to socialise, participate in activities independently, and build meaningful connections.

Through flexible, non-clinical support, we empower people to develop confidence and skills, progress on their recovery journeys, and create lasting change.
