Do you love gardening and helping others?

Join our Friday morning gardening group as a Co-Lead and be part of something truly special.

During the growing season, students from a specialist SEND school visit our vibrant Victorian-style kitchen garden each week to plant, water, and harvest fresh fruit and vegetables. Bringing your gardening knowledge and practical skills, you’ll work alongside a staff member who specialises in supporting SEND pupils. Together, you’ll lead a friendly team of around eight volunteers who support the group each Friday.

Experience working with teens with profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) is wonderful but not essential. You’ll be supported by skilled carers and HLC staff, and you’ll gain valuable experience along the way.

What to expect

Sessions run on Friday mornings during term time (April–July and September–October). You’ll help prepare activities, brief volunteers, welcome students, and pair them with one-to-one support for the session.

You may work directly with a participant or oversee the wider group — and, of course, hand out the all-important biscuits at break time! At the end of each session, you’ll lead the tidy-up, support a short debrief with students and volunteers, and share key updates and photos with the volunteer team to keep everyone informed and motivated.

You’ll play an important role in helping participants work towards meaningful goals, such as following instructions, managing transitions, and developing fine motor skills.

What we’re looking for

You’re patient, kind, and empathetic, especially when working with people with learning needs and disabilities. You’re reliable, flexible, and eager to learn.

Consistency is key, so we’re looking for someone who can commit to weekly Friday mornings during both the Autumn and Spring programmes. Your steady, friendly presence will help create stability and comfort for participants who may find change challenging.

Join us — and let’s grow something wonderful together, in the garden and beyond.

Time commitment

• Fridays, 9:30am–12:00pm

• Autumn: 4–6 weeks (September–October)

• Spring: 10–12 weeks (April/May–July)

An additional morning for garden maintenance and session preparation may be helpful in future, but this isn’t essential at the outset.

Skills and experience

• Gardening knowledge and practical skills (required)

• Experience with teens with PMLD (desirable, not essential)

Are you an IT whizz with some ad hoc time to give to a small local charity? 
Come and join the Holly Lodge Centre! 

We’re a hidden gem of social good in the heart of Richmond Park. Founded with a heartfelt mission, we deliver joyful, enriching experiences that promote wellbeing, spark curiosity and help every visitor feel connected to the wonders of Richmond Park. We’re especially proud that over 50% of our programmes focus on SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities). 

We’re looking for someone reliable and flexible, with strong communication and organisational skills and a natural flair for problem-solving. You’re comfortable adapting to changing priorities and happy to roll up your sleeves when needed. 

We’re a small team of six (mostly part-time). While we support one another with day-to-day IT issues, you’ll be the go-to person for things like: 

• Setting up new users and workstations 

• Troubleshooting issues (e.g. scanner or SharePoint connections) 

• Supporting the phone system 

• Advising on wider IT needs 

Recent projects have included supporting an office move and IT setup, working with The Royal Parks to deliver a new internet connection, rolling out two-tier security logins for staff and volunteers, and upgrading systems ahead of Windows 10 support ending. 

Skills and experience 

Formal qualifications aren’t required, but professional or personal IT experience will be very useful. We use Microsoft 365, so familiarity with this — and a willingness to learn the platforms and programmes we use — is essential. 

Experience or knowledge in the following areas would be particularly helpful: 

• Managing Microsoft 365 and Azure environments (user accounts, security, provisioning) 

• PC updates and IT troubleshooting 

• ISP dashboard management 

• Liaison with website developers 

• Working with hardware and software suppliers 

• Advising management on software and systems 

• User support and guidance 

• VOIP telephone systems 

• SharePoint management 

• Anti-virus configuration and management

Are you ready to inspire others and make a real difference? Join our Education Team at The Holly Lodge Centre and help bring the wonders of nature and history to life for visitors of all abilities. 

The Holly Lodge Centre was founded with a heartfelt mission: to make nature accessible to everyone. We are proud that over 50% of our programmes are designed for SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) participants. 

Our wide range of programmes offers something for everyone. Visitors can explore the natural world on our outdoor trails, step back in time in our Victorian classroom or pharmacy, or share meaningful moments through our Reminiscence programmes for older adults. We welcome children from both mainstream and specialist SEND schools, and your role will be central to creating memorable, inclusive learning experiences. 

What we’re looking for 

• A patient, kind and empathetic individual, particularly confident supporting people with learning needs and disabilities 

• A reliable and punctual self-starter who works well as part of a team and can adapt to unexpected changes 

• Someone with a curious mind and infectious enthusiasm for learning 

Whether you enjoy pond dipping and invertebrate hunting with children, or love dressing up and bringing history to life through character-led sessions, there’s a place for you at The Holly Lodge Centre. A teaching background is welcome but not essential — what matters most is your ability to engage and guide groups of children with confidence, warmth and joy. 
 
You’ll be fully supported through shadowing opportunities, detailed programme plans and access to further learning resources. No prior specialist knowledge of Richmond Park’s flora, fauna or history is required — just a willingness to learn and share your enthusiasm.

The helpline is an indispensable service and many women have told me that they consider it a lifeline.”

As a charity that supports children and young people, we make safeguarding individuals our top priority. For this reason, all volunteers are subject to an enhanced criminal record and disclosures check. We also ask all volunteers to adhere to our Safeguarding, Equality and Confidentiality policies. These are nothing to worry about and if you have any questions, our team are happy to support you.

WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

If you're wanting to make a genuine difference, The Wildlife For All Trust is looking to expand its team. We’re a pioneering charity with a refreshingly different and deeper approach. Amongst other projects, we run a huge nature reserve in South Africa.  

We train our team members to understand how attitude has a huge impact on project success. No previous conservation experience is required. We provide all the necessary training to be part of our highly successful work, starting at our nature reserve in Sussex. 

You need to be willing to challenge yourself, learn to work hard, and want to be the best you can be.

This is a rare and exciting opportunity. 

Please see the Wildlife For All website for further details, including how to apply for an interview. 

We look forward to hearing from you.
