Summary

The Claremont Nursing Home is seeking volunteers to help with garden maintenance and planting in their grounds.

Detailed description

The Claremont Nursing Home has a warm and friendly atmosphere and is run by a team of staff who work hard to provide top-quality care. Nestling close to beautiful Caister-on-Sea beach, Claremont House is both popular and well known in the local community. Originally opening its doors in 1996, the single-storey home offers specialised nursing care, with a 24 bed specialist dementia unit opening in 2009.


Do you like helping bring people together? Do you have a passion for the outdoors? Are you seeking work experience?

This is a fantastic opportunity if you require experience or would like to share your gardening passion and knowledge.
