Grow has recently completed a full redevelopment of their site in the Coutanchez ready for our 40th Anniversary in 2024.
This means that our Crew now have the opportunity to train in a range of occupational skills and enrichment programmes. Whilst Grow will always provide a sheltered work environment, we can now also offer training skills for employment in commercial sectors, taking their place in the Guernsey community with confidence and self-esteem.
