Gardening and Park Maintenance Volunteer

Love being outdoors? Join our friendly volunteering sessions and help keep the park looking its best.
This is a fun, physical and social opportunity to support the parks team with the ongoing care and maintenance of the park. You'll be part of a diverse group of volunteers, led by our experienced park gardener.
As the season change, so do the tasks, from weeding and general upkeep to seasonal planting days.
Volunteers also have their very own community planter, giving you the chance to decide what to plant and how to care for it throughout the year. Whether you're an experienced gardener of just keen to learn, there's a role for everyone.
Come along, get active, meet new people and help make the park a place the whole community can enjoy.
