Weekend Sessional Playworker

Our community centre and garden is a hub for social and therapeutic horticulture, sports and community support. We work with volunteers and local residents individually and in groups so they have access to green space according to their needs. Open 7 days a week, we achieve our aims through the following programmes: • A horticultural volunteering and training programme for older people, people with learning disabilities and mental health issues as well as for the general public. • Sustainable food growing incorporating an innovative closed loop food cycle and food waste recycling demonstration site, allotments for local residents, hosting a food cooperative and providing community lunches twice a week. • Community Arts & Crafts Activities for our elderly users and other community members. • Supervised arts and environmental activities for children aged 0-14 and their families during weekends and school holidays. • Sports development including football coaching and training for disabled people, children, women and young people and walking football for older people.
