Call for Creative Courtyard Volunteers
14 March 2024Arts for Health MK are looking to expand their pool of
volunteers to help look after some of the green spaces at Milton Keynes
University Hospital.
Volunteering sessions are great way to meet other like-minded people, who enjoy the wellness benefits of the great outdoors. We just know you will go away with a sense of accomplishment that you have helped keep the Creative Courtyards looking their best for patients, staff and visitors.
We welcome volunteers with little or lots of gardening experience, and we would love to hear your interests too. Maybe you can bring your passion for wildlife to help us make the spaces more welcoming for butterflies, your carpentry skills to fashion a new planter, or are a dab hand with the paintbrush to give a bench a makeover. There are lots of basic gardening tasks such as weeding, planting and pruning too.
Who is this opportunity suitable for?
Adults aged 18+ who are able to take part in light gardening duties. We are particularly interested in hearing from adults 35-65 identifying as male who are looking to make new friends or for opportunities to get out and about, as this group have been identified as less likely to access social support networks or volunteer within their local community.
When? We currently have a regular spruce of the courtyards on Tuesdays between 1 and 3 pm and other ad hoc sessions throughout the good weather season. A hot or cold drink will be provided.
To register your interest or for further information, please contact info@artsforhealthmk.org.uk
Please indicate in your email your interests and availability for regular or ad hoc opportunities. Read more about the creative courtyards here:
