Gardener(s)
Glow Kids Trust is seeking a volunteer gardener to help care for our outdoor spaces. Our garden supports a calm, welcoming environment for disabled and neurodivergent children and their whānau.
This is an ongoing role involving general garden care, including weeding, pruning, seasonal planting, and maintaining plant health. The gardener will also provide guidance on suitable plants and suggestions for maintaining and improving the space, as our team does not have specialist gardening expertise.
The time commitment is a few hours per month, with flexible timing during centre hours (Monday to Friday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm).
All volunteers working on site are required to complete a police check. Support will be provided for this process.
Gardening experience or strong practical knowledge
Confidence making decisions about plant care and seasonal maintenance
Reliable and comfortable working with minimal supervision
Ability to bring personal gardening items such as gloves (small tools can be purchased if needed)
Willingness to complete a police check before starting
A few hours per month on an ongoing basis. Timing is flexible and can be arranged during centre hours (Monday to Friday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm)
