Volunteer Gardening Support

Overview

Volunteers make an enormous contribution to our work at Change Grow Live.

 

Last year over 1400 volunteers donated over a quarter of million hours of their time to our organisation.

 

Would you like to join our growing team of volunteers, and make a real difference?

• The garden runs next to the City Walls from Micklegate Bar and is a real sun-trap
• It is home to all sorts of wildlife - foxes / birds
