Walsall, United Kingdom Acorns Children's Hospice Full time

Do you enjoy outdoor spaces, flowers and nature? Can you appreciate the beauty of a well-maintained garden and enjoy taking care of it?

We’re looking for volunteer gardeners to help us maintain our gardens in our Black Country Hospice, Walsall.

At Acorns we provide care and support for life limited or life threatened children and their families. We have three hospices in the West Midlands, which provide a happy homely environment where children can experience all kinds of great activities, meet new friends or relax and enjoy some quiet time.

Our Hospice Volunteer Gardeners help to maintain and manage the grounds and gardens to high horticultural standards. Our Volunteers get involved in mowing, planting, weeding, sweeping and general tidying.

While we require no previous experience, you’ll probably:

- Enjoy working outdoors
- Happy to get dirty in the mud, digging and pulling up weeds
- Be sensitive to the needs of our children, young people and families

What we offer:

- Meet new people everyday
- Access to free online courses
- Learn new skills to boost your CV
- Retail discounts
- Volunteer recognition scheme to show our appreciation

Full training will be provided
