RHS Flower Show Wentworth Event Helper (South Yorkshire)

RNIB has been invited to create a show garden for the RHS at their new venue for 2025, the RHS Flower Show at Wentworth Woodhouse near Rotherham, South Yorkshire. The garden is supported by Players of the People’s Postcode Lottery and we’re working with an internationally known garden designer, Paul Hervey-Brookes, an RHS judge to create an accessible, sensory space that celebrates the incredible impact of gifts in Wills. Gifts in Wills are a very special way of giving and account for more than a third of RNIB’s annual income.

We’re looking for volunteers who live in or close to Rotherham, South Yorkshire who have excellent communication skills, lots of enthusiasm and who enjoy talking to people about the work of RNIB. An interest in gardening would be advantageous but not essential.

The event is taking place from 16 until 20 July 2025 and volunteers are needed for a day or more at Wentworth Woodhouse near Rotherham. The days will be busy and varied and could include:

• talking to members of the public
• handing out merchandise
• helping supporters in the garden

How you will be supported in your role:
Training will be given before the show and there will be members of RNIB staff on hand to deal with any queries throughout the duration of the show.
