Volunteer with us 

We are always looking for support to keep the park looking lovely. Whether you fancy a bit of gardening, litter picking or you would prefer conservation activities in the woodland. 

 

Join one of our monthly workdays and get stuck in - click here for a list of upcoming dates and key details. All tools are provided but please bring your own if you prefer.  If you have any questions about volunteering with us, please get in touch. ​

​

If you'd like to join the ad hoc community gardening or orchard maintenance sessions that we occasionally organise in between work days, please ask to join the Gardening or Orchard WhatsApp groups using the contact us form.

​

Adopt a plot 

Some of the flower beds around the lake are 'adopted' by individuals or small groups of volunteers. This  generally means that these volunteers take the lead in planting, weeding and watering these areas, with support from the wider group.  We can help with advice about planting and planning a plot, as well as extra pairs of hands during workdays. We can also sometimes provide funding for new planting.  If you would be interested in adopting a plot, please come and speak with us at a workday.  â€‹

Join the committee

We have an active and friendly committee and we are always looking for new members. Members are elected at the autumn AGM and generally work with the group for some time before joining the committee. The committee includes a Chair, Treasurer and Secretary. Other members may be coopted to help run projects or develop specific areas of work.
