Cross-generational growing & creative sessions volunteer

In partnership with WeBuild Brighton, Wild Purpose runs monthly Sunday sessions at Moulsecoomb allotments on Natal Road.

The sessions are designed to connect adult generations (18+) to share gardening, nature connection and creative activities together.

Sessions run 11am to 2pm and involve - a cuppa and check in, working on the land/gardening, reflection activities and a creative activity (e.g. creating natural prints, cyanotypes, using clay, etc).

Practical Considerations

The allotment is a natural space with uneven paths and incline in places. Please let us know in advance if any adjustments are needed.

There are parking spaces in Natal road and around the area.

There are no fixed toilet and bathroom facilities at the site but there is a portable toilet and handwashing facilities. The nearest toilet in on Lewes Road, a 5minute walk from the site.

The We Build allotment is in Moulsecoomb Allotments, Natal Road, Brighton  - the postcode is BN2 4BN

Please wear appropriate outdoor weather depending on the season. 

Support Disabled

We set up activities so they can be accessed from sitting down (e.g. gardening sitting down and art activities sitting down).

The plot is on a slight gradient that can affect accessibility. There are a range of gardening jobs from sitting down to more physical activities.

Skills

No skills or experience required, just a natural curiosity to try and share gardening and creative activites.
