Volunteering with us

We welcome everyone to come and join our friendly group of volunteers, whether or not you have gardening experience and regardless of your age. Our main work is gardening but we do from time to time organise action sessions involving other environmental and community activities across the Fair City of Perth, including litter picks and tidying up overgrown areas, to name just a few! There are lots of examples of our volunteers at work on the pages of this website so do have a browse. You can also hear from some of our volunteers themselves in our 'Meet our Volunteers' video.

We work throughout the year (weather dependent) and our sessions usually last two hours and depending on what we're doing, may be during the day or in the early evening. Our most regular session is on Tuesday mornings 10-12, mainly at Riverside Park but other sessions are arranged for other times and places throughout the week. All sessions are alerted to our volunteers by email or Whatsapp if you are ok to do so. Our Privacy Policy sets out how we will hold and use your data. The Policy is included in our Policy & Procedures document, which also covers issues like safe working practices for our volunteers.

We provide the tools and equipment you'll need - we just ask our volunteers to dress appropriately for the weather and to wear suitable sturdy footwear.

It's good for your health,good fun and very sociable (a break for a cuppa & biscuit and natter is always included). You don't have to come to every session - we all do what we can so there's no pressure, every contribution helps. 

If you'd like to join our team of volunteers, do please get in touch we'd love to hear from you.
