Have you got 5 hours a week to spare? Are you interested in helping people with challenges in their life? Then Join us! We require Client Support Volunteers to assist in the Garden alongside our horticulturists in the supervision of our adult and teenage clients with a variety of disabilities. Duties will include general gardening work as well as assisting with our clients, both children and adults with the opportunity to achieve a qualification in horticulture. We are open 5 days a week, Monday to Friday. Our adult clients attend all year round but our teenagers only attend during school term times.
No gardening experience is required, just the ability to get along with others and muck in! This can be a great stepping stone to further education or work opportunities for our clients.
What skills do I need?
