ADULT VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Kentish Town City Farm is visited by a whole host of people from all different backgrounds. We run a wide range of activities and events, and our volunteers are really important to sustaining this constant programme of activity.
We have many different volunteering opportunities at the farm and also one off opportunities every few months. The kind of support we look for is wide ranging but includes: - running a workshop for young children, helping out once a year running a stall to help raise money, doing some filing now and again in the office, writing a letter to a shop to ask for a donation, writing an article for the newsletter, putting up posters in your local street, baking a cake- the list really is endless...
We send out a monthly e-mail that lists current volunteering opportunities. If you would like to give something back to your community and to this unique resource in the heart of Gospel Oak why not drop us a line, so that we can add you to our volunteer database. You never know when you might get the time to help? We are a friendly bunch of people and you also have the opportunity to meet up once a month on a more social basis with other volunteers.
