West End Women and Girls Centre is the first and only open access, community based women and girls centre in Newcastle, we aim to build the power of women and girls, who have been and continue to be disenfranchised. We seek to drive positive change in the world, our community and in women and girls lives.

We are looking for regular volunteers who can help us dig, plant, build and look after the animals at our farm in rural Northumberland.

Volunteers will help us grow sustainable, organic food in our polytunnel and on the fields, plant trees and hedgerows, care for the sheep, lambs, hens and goats, repair and maintain the barns, outhouses and rainwater collection systems and help us to create wild spaces for bees, flowers, women and girls.

What skills do I need?

We are looking for women volunteers who can commit regularly. This opportunity would suit volunteers that have an interest in horticulture / gardening, DIY & maintenance and animal care.

Get in touch to book your place. West End Women and Girls Centre's Farm is based in rural Northumberland, approx. an hour north of Newcastle so if you have your own transport that is great, but get in touch if not and we can try and organise a car share or a lift.

Please note that volunteer sessions run during term time only.
