Summary
The gardening and growing volunteer will support our accommodation sites in maintaining their outdoor spaces.
Detailed description
Having access to a secure garden or outdoor area can be crucial for providing opportunities to socialise and relax, which can be invaluable for the mental well-being of our residents.
The gardening and growing volunteer will support our accommodation sites in maintaining their outdoor spaces, including:
* Clearing leaves and large twigs.
* Planting bulbs and tidying up flower beds.
We would love for this to be an opportunity to involve our residents and potentially lead a gardening activity with them, equipping them with knowledge and skills to maintain their own green spaces in the future.
You will need:
* Enjoy working outside in all weathers.
* An interest/basic knowledge of gardening.
* The role requires some degree of physical work and lifting/manual handling.
* To work under your own initiative.
* Opportunity to meet new people and learn new skills.
A full induction to the service and specific site will be provided as well as access to training and events throughout the year!
Please note: You will be required to undergo a DBS check.
Some sites have basic tools; however, any additional tools and material required can be discussed with your volunteer manager.
