Come volunteer with us

Get your team out of the office and get hands into the soil while having some fun with an afternoon in one of our GLAS community gardens. Our gardens are a very open, accepting and welcoming place, and volunteers with no experience are as welcome as those with green fingers. Everyone is invited to work at their own pace and to enjoy their surroundings in whatever way feels good to them on the day.
