- Groups are free, weekly and take place all-year-round
- Each group is run by a staff member who makes sure everyone is safe and understands the tasks. Covid procedures are in place.
- Groups are 2 hours long. We start and finish on time and need your help to set up and pack down punctually.
- We work on site as a group of up to 15 Volunteers doing different tasks, which means people are sometimes spread out. You can usually chose what task you want to do, and work either as a group or on your own.
- Staff can’t offer one-to-support, if you need extra support in the garden, please contact us to discuss.
- If you have any questions or if you’re not sure whether Community Gardening is for you, feel free to get in touch! volunteer@hydeparksource.org
