Volunteering at Woodlands

We have many different types of volunteering opportunities at Woodlands, and we are grateful for the contributions of volunteers across the organisation.

We want our volunteers to feel safe, welcome, valued and confident in their roles. Our Volunteer Induction Pack provides information about the support you can expect from us, and what our expectations are of you.

Community Garden Volunteers

Throughout the year we organise garden volunteering opportunities. These offer

  • the chance to get to know other local people who care about the local environment

  • opportunities to take part in the seasonal activities of the garden.

Interested in Volunteering in the Garden?

Over winter whilst the garden is dormant, we do not currently have capacity to welcome any new garden volunteers. However, we do have plans for a range of garden and greenspace projects coming up in 2026 for which we will be recruiting volunteers.

Please complete the form via this LINK to register your expression of interest and we can let you know when garden volunteer opportunities become available in the spring.

Fundraising Volunteers

Do you fancy putting on your own sponsored activity?
Or organising a fundraising event in your college or workplace?
Could you help us in signing up more people as friends of Woodlands Community?
Or do you have links with businesses or corporations who may be able to support us through donations?

With an increasingly uncertain funding climate we are looking to build up our resilience by increasing the funds we can raise through our network of friends, supporters and partners. We need your energy and ideas!
