Join us for a hands-on session to create raised garden beds that will provide a sustainable growing space for students! This is a great opportunity to contribute to campus well-being, learn practical skills, and enjoy teamwork outdoors. It is also Student Volunteering Week so the perfect time to start your volunteering journey! During the session, there will be several activities to get involved in, these include:

• Constructing and filling raised beds
• Litter picking and tidying up of the garden space
• Constructing the garden tool shed 
• Gardening activity
• Setting up a water butt to capture rain water
