Ways You Can Volunteer
Events and Activities
Join our Gardening Group
Help us create small events and activities for local families and children. We’d love to do more — but we need more volunteers to make it happen.
One of the easiest and most enjoyable ways to get involved is through our friendly Gardening Club.
Meeting every Wednesday from 10am–12pm, the group helps care for planting areas across the Recreation Grounds while creating a welcoming space to chat, enjoy the outdoors and make a visible difference in the local community.
Whether you’re a keen gardener or simply fancy getting outside and meeting people, everyone is welcome.
