 🌱 Building a Career in Gardening 🌿🌷

     with London School of Horticulture

*** PLACES STILL AVAILABLE ***

Saturday 28th February (10.30am-1.30pm) - Rosendale Allotments SE21

 

A workshop for anyone interested in the nuts and bolts of turning gardening into paid work - whether you’re considering a career change, starting from scratch, or already gardening for a living but ready to take the next step.

We'll discuss study and training options, and how to get started in your own business: what to look out for, the resources, tools and skills you might need - and the pitfalls you might meet – as you build a career in gardening. We’ll look at what professional garden maintenance really involves, how people typically get started and how to move from doing the odd gardening job to running a viable, enjoyable business. We’ll cover the information to help you decide whether self-employment is the right fit for you and we’ll also look at what other career paths there are.

This short, practical workshop is informal, realistic, and grounded in real-world experience - led by tutors who between them have done it all! There will be plenty of space for questions and discussion.

Half-day workshop with a small group.

Adults only. Cost: £50

    • And no queues at 1130 yesterday. Maybe everyone's had enough and switched to the Yodel and Evri app.
    • Hi there guys, I hope you're well.  I've recently done a term of Dance Yourself Fit, which began with a class at the Harris Girls Academy on the Nunhead side of the Rye, then transferred to the Charter School for Girls up by the old ED hospital. It's been so good and all the women attending have loved it too, but due to exams being on next term the classes are being discontinued in East Dulwich, much to our disappointment. They're moving them to Streatham, but that is not convenient for me and many of the others. This is a link to their site in case anyone is interested though: https://www.danceyourselffit.com I'm now looking for a replacement class that's not too expensive, keeps me moving energetically for an hour and is local and hopefully less than a tenner per lesson (this was about £72 for 8 classes I think?). Does anyone know of anything? I'm also looking for low-cost pilates classes to join too, if anyone has any recommendations for those too? Very best,  Eleanor  Also, just to add, what's been so nice is that it HASN'T been in a gym with lots of lively young lithe gazelle like creatures hopping about. It's been extremely inclusive for women of all sizes and shapes and really nice that it's been in schools not gyms. Anyway, keeping my fingers crossed!
    • I'd also like to highly recommend Niko. He just replaced the extraction fan in our bathroom, having previously installed a new tap for us. Fast, professional and a really great guy. 
    • Agree with this. He's stood down from his role in Cabinet having left the Party, but he was elected as a representative of all the constituents in his ward and logic suggests that he should continue to represent them as a councillor for his remaining 3 months. He might wish to stand again, as a Green, in that ward (if he's chosen) and hope that personal loyalty to him might transfer, but that's now the call of his (new) party and him. He will have to balance that with a view about how many of his Labour supporters will feel sufficiently betrayed to continue to support Labour. I suspect, I may be wrong, that he will not have a cabinet position open to him after May (unless the Greens sweep in locally) so presumably he will have to consider his next career move, and whether that's back to full-time primary teaching.
