Do you want to make a difference to the lives of refugees and people seeking asylum in the North of England? The Comfrey Project in Gateshead is looking for a Gardening Lead.
Since 2001, The Comfrey Project has offered a secure and inclusive environment for individuals who have escaped conflict and persecution. We use horticulture-based activities including gardening, bee-keeping, cooking, crafts and construction with the goal of enhancing their physical and mental health, assisting them in acquiring new skills, and helping them integrate into their new community. We aim to create a welcoming space where everyone is encouraged to play an active role.
Our volunteers, people seeking asylum and refugees living in Northeast England, share their skills and knowledge, assist in running our sessions, help make organisational decisions, and gain from active participation.
We are interested in hearing from professional horticulturalists who can lead by empowering our volunteers to develop skills and ownership of our community garden whilst developing ambitious and achievable strategic gardening plans that are operational, seasonal and have a strong focus on environmental sustainability.
