Description

We are excited to welcome a research volunteer to collaborate on St Paul’s Woodland Garden, a multi award-winning project supported by the National Lottery Community Fund. This initiative focuses in supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our community. We have transformed a neglected part of a church outdoor space into a beautiful community woodland garden to provide a safe space and opportunities for people to come together to get involved with a range of activities. We would love to work with a research volunteer to perform a literature review that explores academic works related to horticulture and gardening therapy, specifically in the context of addressing mental health challenge.

Time commitment

We anticipate agreeing the time commitment together with the successful volunteer, based on their skills and experience and how the role develops.
