FSB Member Stories: Mark Frith, Growing Togetherness CIC

FSB Member Story 4 Jul 2022

We visited Growing Togetherness, a community interest company based in Salford, to talk to director and FSB member Mark Frith. Mark explains how being a business leader can be isolating, but with FSB by his side he has access to a supportive network. 

Mark Frith is a director at Growing Togetherness, a Community Interest Company focussed on the sustainable development of communities. Mark worked on sustainable community development projects for ten years before going freelance and teaching therapeutic horticulture in local schools.  

Just before the pandemic, Mark was offered the opportunity to assist in the management of green space with a group of volunteers on a pro bono basis, which led to the creation of the Community Interest Company, a dream he had for many years. 

Read more about Mark’s story and how Growing Togetherness is helping the local community.
