Gardener (Conservation & Grounds Maintenance Days - Monthly Event)

Are you a keen gardener, interested in conservation, an experienced groundsperson, or just have some hours to spare each month, and interested in giving it a go? Could you help us to enhance the appearance and the habitat value of our 22 acre site, alongside like minded people?

RSPCA West Hatch are hosting monthly Conservation and Grounds Maintenance Volunteering Team Days on the first Saturday of every month from 10am to 3pm. Our first event will be held on Saturday 1st June.

We're looking for practical volunteers with a passion for both the outdoors and for animals who can help us with various gardening and groundwork tasks such as weeding, pruning, keeping fencing tidy and clear of vegetation, designing wildlife friendly gardens and areas, and general maintenance of garden areas and borders.

You will also be helping with projects such as preparing, restoring and enhancing habitats for wildlife rehabilitation such as our paddocks, woodlands and meadows, which will help nature and maximise the benefits that this brings to us and the animals we care for.

You don't need any previous knowledge or experience, just the desire to get stuck in and have a willingness to help and get your hands dirty. If you want to keep active, make new friends, or use your skills to benefit the welfare of animals, this role might be perfect for you.

Before you start, you'll need to complete some online training courses (induction, health and safety etc), but this won't take too long and it is an easy process.

WARNING! This volunteering role will boost your social wellbeing!
