We are looking for a volunteer gardener to look after the garden at our care home, Brambletye, in Finchampstead.
In April, a team of volunteers came for a day to regenerate a section of the garden and did lots of planting and painting. We’d love to find a volunteer who could continue their good work and look after the whole garden.
We’re happy for volunteers to volunteer as much or as little as they like, but we do ask that they are able to ensure the regenerated section of the garden is tended at least monthly and grows in a healthy way.
