Default Lean to greenhouses

Need some advice or links please. The community organisation I'm based at with my job are wanting to set up a veggie garden for some disabled children.

The manager's asked me to find out about lean-to greenhouses, preferably plastic for health & safety reasons, that have got a space big enough to get a wheelchair into.

Any suggestions for companies/links etc?

TIA

I got a standard 8x6 from www.thegreenhousepeople.co.uk Based in Stoke on Trent, its got toughened glass. I know they do lean to's.

You can request a catalogue from them, but perhaps drop them a line and see if they can advise you of your specific needs.

The following are from adverts in the back of this months GYO mag.

Are you a trust or charity?. Might you have or be able to acess funding to have one 'Made to Measure'. It would pprobaly be more expensive but would meet your needs, There is bound to be a local builder able to do the job at cost for a good cause.

Peritys make timber greenhouses with toughened glass or polycarbonate (think that is what is it called) plastic, made to measure, they do a lot of lean-to's.
