Conservation/Green Space Volunteer - Maidstone
Kent and Medway NHS & Social Care Partnership Trust
Help us develop and maintain a wildlife meadow for use as a therapeutic area for patients.
We are developing a new wildlife/greenspace area at our site in Maidstone. This will include wildflowers and grasses and creating and sustaining wildlife habitats. We need people who can help in maintaining this area. An interest and, ideally, a little knowledge of this sector would be ideal. The space is to be used as a peaceful and relaxing area for use by staff and patients. It will also be used for therapeutic activities for patients. We are an adult mental health Trust so you will need to be patient, helpful, and non-judgemental. We will require two referees, and will do a DBS. In return we pay travel expenses, training, and full support.

Some knowledge of conservation/gardening and wild space management would be an advantage, but not essential.
Free training provided. Travel expenses pad. A chance to help support the environment and support our patients on their road to recovery.
A regular commitment is required - either weekly or fortnightly. But one-off activities can be provided for groups looking for a group activity together.
