Summary

Feathers Futures works with supporting women and are looking for volunteers to help with updating and planting their small outside garden area.

Detailed description

Feathers Futures brings women together into a connected community group, providing a safe, non-judgemental environment where women can have a voice, express feelings, be heard and understood. Our aim is to be a place for women to come and make friends, socialise, learn new skills and receive support. Supported by a team of volunteers and staff, we offer a range of expertise to help women to create a brighter future.


We are women supporting women, and many of our volunteers and team have benefitted from Feathers Future’s help in the past, so we have a breadth of experience and are here to support our ladies and make a positive difference.


Over the years, we have created enjoyable small groups, including drop-in sessions, counselling, domestic abuse tool kit, Feathers Friends, classes and groups, a book club and art sessions.


We are looking for female volunteers, due to remaining supportive to females in a safe environment to update our garden areas. We have planters and a small outside area that needs updating, planting and a general tidy up. The space is used as an area of tranquillity and needs some TLC.


We are looking for female volunteers for just a few hours a week and can be flexible with timings during the day.
