If you enjoy spending your free time in a lovely natural environment, why not join our friendly volunteer team?

The garden has a very special atmosphere and a day spent here can be very restorative, as well as bringing the satisfaction of helping to maintain this important scientific, conservation and educational resource.

Volunteers are central to the role of the charity.

Besides helping in the gardens maybe you would enjoy interacting with our visitors here at the garden? Or perhaps you prefer to support us from home using your social media, fundraising or other skills ? We always welcome help!

We welcome new Garden volunteers to our loyal and friendly Garden Team who meet on Fridays year round. There is always cake and a relaxed, informal atmosphere. for more information, please contact us.

If you work for a business which offers employees volunteering days, we would be delighted to hear from you by using the contact link above. Our volunteering day companies include, for example, Davidstow the famous cheesemaking company based in Cornwall, whose employee volunteers help us in the Gardens.

During the summer months we welcome Tearoom Volunteers to help in our friendly seasonal tearoom and tea garden. No experience needed, just willing hands and a warm smile.
