About Us

We at the Fylde Memorial Arboretum are a welcoming group of volunteers who help care for and develop this unique memorial space in Blackpool. The arboretum provides a peaceful place for remembrance, reflection and connection with nature, and our volunteers help ensure it remains a special place for the whole community.

What We Do

While some of our volunteers enjoy hands-on gardening and outdoor work, there are many other ways to get involved. We welcome people with a wide range of interests and skills.

Volunteer roles include:

• Gardening and seasonal planting

• General upkeep and light maintenance

• Feeding and caring for the birds and wildlife

• Fundraising and helping organise events

• IT and website support

• Social media and communications

• Helping to source materials, plants and equipment

• Administrative support

Help lead guided tours

Whether you prefer working outdoors, behind the scenes, or using your professional skills to support the group, there is a role for you.

What skills do I need?

Why Volunteer With Us?

• Be part of a friendly and supportive team

• Use your existing skills or learn new ones

• Meet new people and build community connections

• Spend time outdoors in a peaceful setting

• Help preserve and enhance a meaningful memorial space
