Do you enjoy being outdoors and doing a spot of gardening? Our hospice gardens are rather large and need a lot of care and attention all year round. You will be led by our very talented gardener Sophie, who will support and guide you all the way. It is an excellent opportunity to meet new people and learn new skills.
