Rosie, Laura and Sheila turned out to help at Braywick Heath Nurseries on a chilly November day. Nicki, our taskowner for the morning, greeted with the statement 'Let's make Christmas!' Our task was to clear an area in the shop and turn it all Christmasy. We cleared all the pots from the area for relocation elsewhere, and set to work. Laura proved to be a dab hand at putting up the Christmas lights, decorating a wooden tree and the shelf area. We hung some Christmas bags up as well as some Christmasy soft toys. We found some red plants and put them in wicker star-shaped holders and added some boxes of Christmas cards What a transformation! While Laura continued to decorate the area, Rosie and Sheila were tasked with displaying the pots in a different area. I think it's fair to say that it didn't turn out to be our strongest point, but we tried!

We are a small garden garden centre providing volunteering, work experience and employment for adults with support needs

We run a not-for-profit company, supported by paid staff & community volunteers to provide volunteering, work experience and employment for adults with a wide range of support needs. We are currently having a big clear out across our site, and need help moving all of the material to a skip. This will enable us to better use the space we have to expand our operations and better support our volunteers and staff.
