Volunteering

At the heart of the Salisbury community are the volunteers involved in the daily life of the Centre, who make the Centre the diverse, welcoming and thriving place it is!

As a volunteer, you have the opportunity to contribute to a vibrant community initiative that aims to make a difference to the environment and to build community. You will be part of a wider team of volunteers from different backgrounds. 

There are many teams and roles in which you can get involved:

  • Seed Library: contributing to seed-saving and sharing in our community through sharing circles, events, gardening, and maintaining our seed library. More info here
  • Community Dinner Co-host: Setting up, facilitating the blessing of the meal, make sure any food allergens are mentioned before serving, clearing up and tidying the space
  • Community Seasonal Celebrations: Co-creating and facilitating seasonal community celebrations. 
  • Garden: Taking part in regular group gardening sessions and workshops to maintain food garden and nature patches. 
  • Meditation: Facilitating the Centre’s free, twice daily silent meditation sessions.
  • Library: Receiving and organising book donations, and maintaining the Centre’s library as an inspiring resource for the community.
  • Photographers & film-makers
  • Trustees : Acting Board, governing the Salisbury Centre
