🌱 We're hiring a Community Connector! 🌱

Go Flourish is a charity that embeds professionally designed community gardens in schools. At our pilot school, North Kessock Primary, the garden supports outdoor learning during the school day and community wellbeing activity beyond it.

We're looking for someone to help families and the wider community make the most of the garden. Over two years, you'll develop and run workshops and activities outside school time, and build relationships with local families, groups and businesses. You'll help the garden grow as a welcoming space for wellbeing and connection.

An interest in growing, nature or community work would be great, and horticulture knowledge is a bonus.

📄 Fixed-term, two-year pilot
💷 £16 an hour
📍 Home working, our Munlochy office and North Kessock Primary School

168 carrots harvested from the Go Flourish garden! Purple, orange and yellow, all harvested by the children with some excellent counting practice along the way. Everyone had the opportunity to taste all 3 colours and the rest went to the canteen for lunches.

Community afternoon today, 3–5pm 🌿

We're making a Go Flourish film to show the work happening in the garden at North Kessock Primary starting this afternoon.

If you'd like to say a little on camera about the garden and what it means to you and/or your children or grandkids that use the garden at the school we'd love to hear from you. And if that's not your thing, no problem at all - come along anyway. There's always plenty to be getting on with and an extra pair of hands is very welcome.

All welcome, no experience needed. See you at 3pm! 🌻

Children very welcome with an adult.
