Skills for Work Service (Enfield Council) is currently working in ten primary schools as part of a wider Market Gardening project. All schools are working hard to grow vegetables and fruit in the school grounds with parents and children. This is helping both to educate the children about growing food and also to provide food to support families.
The project requires volunteers to help with food growing in schools. You would need to have an understanding and passion of how to grow and look after vegetables and fruit and enjoy working with children.
The days and hours will vary according to each school. The council will cover the cost of a disclosure and barring (DBS) check for each volunteer before they are permitted to work with children.
