Meet the Volunteers
The Oldway Gardens Volunteer Group continues to do a fantastic job keeping the beautiful gardens at Oldway Mansion looking wonderful. They tell us their stories.
Steve Berry “Hi my name is Steve. I am a 62-year-old retired Openreach Engineer. I have good memories of Oldway Mansion and the gardens having got married here 32 years ago. I found Oldway Garden Volunteers on their Facebook page and I am so pleased I did! It helps me get out in the fresh air, exercise, socialise and work with a great bunch. I feel that I am making a difference at Oldway.”
“Hi I’m Roger. I’ve been an Oldway Garden Volunteer for 9 months and have enjoyed every day helping to bring back the gardens to life. All the encouragement and compliments we get really helps. It’s great talking to the visitors as we complete each area of Oldway Gardens; it’s beginning to look lovely now. All the volunteers are doing a great job, now we are looking forward to spring. Cheers all.”

“Hi, my name is Pete. I became a member of the Oldway Garden Volunteer Group because I have a few hours to spare each week. Having got married at Oldway 42 years ago, I would like to see the gardens as vibrant and colourful as it was then. I would recommend to anyone who enjoys fresh air and the outdoor life to volunteer, and make a difference and get satisfaction.”
