Community garden volunteers needed to maintain and manage a new fruit and vegetable garden at CCP Tewkesbury Community Hub
Tewkesbury Nature Reserve received funding to develop a community garden at the CCP Tewkesbury Community Hub in February/March 2026. This is now up and running thanks to the hard work of volunteers in March.
New volunteers are invited to support the ongoing maintenance of the community garden once a month, as part of a small, friendly group of volunteers. We meet on the second Wednesday of the month from 1.30pm - 3pm. No prior experience is necessary, although experienced gardeners are also very welcome. Tasks include weeding, watering, planting and maintenance of the garden.

Our Mission
Establish, develop and maintain a healthy and thriving community nature reserve, by protecting, improving, and conserving the natural environment, and enhancing the biodiversity of the site.
Make the reserve accessible to the public as a place for recreation, education, and the promotion of health and wellbeing, while balancing the needs of visitors with those of the natural environment.
Develop the reserve as an outdoor learning environment, and promote an understanding and appreciation of freshwater wetlands, nature and wildlife across all age groups through active community participation.
Reinstate and support natural hydrological processes, re-naturalise watercourses and create new wetland areas, creating new spaces for nature and improving the site’s ability to retain water, and playing a part in reducing flooding.
