Gardening Volunteer
Winterbourne
Milestones Trust is a health and social care charity which supports people with learning disabilities, mental health needs and people living with dementia. The services are provided through a network of residential/nursing care homes and supported living homes throughout the Bristol and South Gloucestershire areas.
We are looking for a volunteer to support our home in Winterbourne to maintain their large lovely garden for their residents to enjoy, which unfortunately the staff do not have time to do.
If you enjoy gardening and are looking to make a difference by using your skills whilst meeting new people in a warming environment this would be a great opportunity for you and we would really appreciate your help. Our residents would also love joining you in the garden during your visits.
The role would be either weekly or fortnightly and the day can be flexible to suit you.
Please get in touch if you are interested, it would be great to hear from you.
Please note: All volunteers that visit care homes/CQC registered services are required to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19, unless they have evidence that they are medically exempt from the requirement, as set out in DHSC Guidance on mandatory vaccination.
Also due to the nature of the people we support a DBS check will be carried out and references sought.
