Organisation Details
University of Manchester Volunteering & Awards Team
Sub theme: Mental Health
Description of role: Come and help St. Chad’s Church in Ladybarn develop its beautiful wildlife garden by helping them plant several new fruit trees and bushes! It’s the perfect chance meet new people, enjoy some time outdoors and take a break from studying, and make a difference in the local community.
What will you be doing? 🍎
For several years, we’ve partnered with St Chad’s, where groups of student volunteers have helped create and maintain a wildlife garden, community orchard, and food plots for local residents to enjoy. This time, we will be helping develop the wildlife garden by planting new fruit trees and bushes.
When and where? 🍎
The Volunteer Day will be from 10am to 3:30pm on Friday 28th November. We will meet outside of St. Chads Church at 10am. If you want to get involved and cannot make the whole day please get in touch with us.
What do I need to bring? 🍎
Refreshments will be provided but please bring your own lunch. Please wear old clothes/shoes that you don’t mind getting muddy. We recommend wearing waterproof layers just in case and sturdy footwear such as walking boots/wellingtons.
*If you’d like to be provided with wellies and a waterproof, please let us know in advance.*
