Do you love gardening and want to make a real difference?

We’re looking for a passionate volunteer to help landscape and maintain the garden at one of our registered mental health residential homes in Southville. This is a chance to create a beautiful outdoor space that brings joy and calm to the people who live here.

One of the people we support is keen to get involved with gardening tasks, so this role is not just about plants—it’s about connection and shared experiences.

What will you be doing?

  • Planning and creating flower beds and a potential vegetable patch
  • Planting and maintaining the garden
  • Working alongside the people we support when they’d like to join in

If you’re hands-on, creative, and enjoy seeing the results of your work bloom, this is a fantastic opportunity to use your skills for good.

When?

Ideally one day fortnightly or monthly, depending on what needs doing. We’re flexible and can work around your availability.

What’s in it for you?

  • Make a positive impact in a mental health service
  • Share your love of gardening
  • Travel expenses covered
  • We’ll liaise with you about tools and materials
  • Full support from our volunteer team and service staff

All volunteers will have a DBS check and provide two references. You’ll also attend a volunteer induction and receive ongoing support.

Ready to help us grow something amazing?

Get in touch today and turn your passion for gardening into something truly meaningful.
