Check out CSSC's Exclusive Volunteering Event at Kew Gardens

CSSC members were invited to an exclusive volunteering day to relish in the stunning landscapes at Kew Gardens, whilst helping out the horticulture team at Kew with some weeding and gardening.

Kew Gardens provided an incredible opportunity for 18 CSSC members to volunteer in one of the world's most biodiverse locations, where they learned new gardening skills, made new friends, and contributed to the preservation of this renowned botanic garden.
