A charity based on horticulture providing meaningful occupation in a supportive
environment, aiming to restore well-being to people with mental illness.
There are many different ways in which people choose to get involved with Cherry Tree Nursery. We call these people Friends of Cherry Tree Nursery, and if they wish, send them newsletters and invitations to our events. Many of them enjoy receiving our very popular calendar, which is a good way of keeping in contact. In general, we have 3 types of friends:
1. Supporting Friends who contribute by making a regular standing order, funding projects or making a donation.
2. Events helpers who support us by assisting at our regular events such as Open Days and Plant Sales
3. Active Friends who attend the nursery to help with work that cannot always be done by volunteers, such as running the shop on a rota basis, book-keeping, supervising small groups, or taking people on outings in our minibus. Helpers of this kind are always needed, especially on Saturdays.
It is very easy to become a Friend. Visit the Nursery, and complete one of the downloadable forms below, giving details of 2 referees who can confirm that you are honest, reliable and patient.
We look forward to meeting you! And thanks to all our fantastic Friends!
