About Us
A big welcome from us all! We are the Maxwell Community Centre & Garden, the green heart of the Hilltown in Dundee since 2014. We support everyone in our neighbourhood to feel well and do well in life. We connect people of all ages and backgrounds with each other and with nature. Learn more about what we do, the story of our award-winning space and meet our fantastic team of staff, volunteers and board as well as our partners and funders.
What We Do
The MAXwell team supports people in our neighbourhood to feel better and do better in life through our three main areas of work below. Our unique model succesfully brings together person centrered care and support with urban food growing, cooking and youth development. Our creative and inclusive approaches offer multiple engagement possibilities for diverse interests and needs. We also help many other groups set up or run food growing projects and are part of larger networks and partnerships to learn and share with others.
