About

Rother Valley Branch is one of the BCSS’s newest branch. We started in March 2019, pausing for a while until Covid went away (during which time we had monthly Zoom talks), and now we are going from strength to strength with our membership gradually rising.

We get out and about in the community and attend local events when we can. We also support the Alexandra Park Greenhouse Group in their endeavours to create a community growing space in their amazing teak and cast iron glasshouse.
