Jubilee Sensory Garden

A beautiful, tranquil space for everyone to enjoy.

Located in front of the Council Offices in Brownsfield Road, Thatcham Town Council manages the area on behalf of Turnfields Recreation Ground Charity, as Trustee of the charity.

Opened in 2022, the space provides opportunities to sit back and enjoy the serenity, or help yourself to the abundance of seasonal herbs or vegetables when they’re ready to harvest.

The garden has a focus on sustainability and is proudly pesticide-free with all produce being grown via organic gardening practices.

The garden was updated in the summer of 2025 with the addition of new planters and benches. This was made possible with a generous donation from local residents Lin Congerton and the late Peter Congerton. Rivar Sand & Gravel kindly donated the soil for the planters.
