Shore Leave Haslar is set within the historic Memorial Garden of the former Royal Hospital Haslar. Come and see the work we do to provide a haven for veterans where they can access gardening as therapy...

Set within a 3-acre former cemetery, Shore Leave Haslar provides a range of horticultural and craft activities for veterans.

We are an all-volunteer organisation and are passionate about what we do. We have some beautiful ‘parkland’ as well as a busy growing area with greenhouses, poly-tunnels and outdoor growing beds.

Come and enjoy this special space and explore both the historical aspects as well as our current work and recent developments.

There will be plants and crafts for sale and light refreshments will be available.
