We are looking for a volunteer to attend our allotment sessions on a weekly basis. We have a large double plot located in a friendly community allotment in Stockport. You will be promoting our weekly sessions to our Service Users and helping to deliver fun and engaging sessions.

Last year we grew strawberries, potatoes, courgettes, green beans and carrots that our local services used to cook healthy meals. There is always lots of weeding, watering, planting and digging to be done. We also hold regular events and parties at the allotment such as a harvest festival and Halloween party.

Our allotment has big plans for the future and we are looking for an enthusiastic person who can help us achieve this. No experience is necessary, although some knowledge of gardening would be welcomed.

As a volunteer with Creative Support, we offer training for your role, access to a volunteer supervisor, an induction, a monthly volunteer newsletter, and an online volunteer support network group on Zoom.

**Suggested Time Commitment**:4 hours per week
