About us Our story Our story From a simple community group to a charity incorporated organisation (CIO foundation). The Hamm-Damm Foundation, meaning "we breathe the same air", is a follow-up organisation of a community group which is a success story in Batley, Yorkshire, UK. The community volunteer group "Manor Gardens Group", which managed the Manor Gardens project for 3 years, transformed a grot spot (a misused empty land) of 4,334 sq meters into a green community growing garden.
