Bridewell Organic Gardens is an award-winning charity based in a walled garden and five-acre vineyard at Wilcote, near Witney in West Oxfordshire.Our objective is to improve the emotional well being of adults who have suffered from a range of health problems, primarily mental illness.

This objective is met by providing a tranquil, rural setting in which our users ('gardeners') can engage in satisfying and rewarding activities.It is well known from research that serious and enduring mental illness leads to losses of self-esteem and self confidence, unemployment, social exclusion and hence isolation. All of these can significantly compound the original problem.
