This month we are focusing on a new role involving being a charity events vounteer.

Would you enjoy being part of a busy team, supporting, organising and delivery of fundraising event?

Gardening Volunteer

We are looking for volunteers to support with maintaining the ward gardens throughout the hospital.  The gardens are a great area for staff and patients to enjoy fresh air and also complete activities that help promote recovery and engage them whilst they are in hospital

If you enjoy gardening or would like to start gardening we have a wonderful, knowledgeable team that would love you to join them.

Tasks include:

•    Weeding and general tidying of the garden 
•    Pruning of shrubs and other planting as necessary (seasonal) 
•    Watering as necessary
•    Cleaning and maintenance of garden furniture
•    Arranging the disposal of garden rubbish 
•    Pressure washing of paths (annually)
•    Helping enhance the general area for all
•    There will be no interaction with patients / vulnerable people

Volunteering is a great way to:

- Develop new skills and build confidence.
- Meet new people and make new friends.
- Give something back to the local community.
