Rectory Lane Cemetery, Berkhamsted

Rendering previously neglected graves beautiful again, particularly in the Garden of Remembrance area, is part of making it a vibrant green space.  Adopting a grave means looking after it – weeding and planting out as a miniature garden – and then maintaining it throughout the year.

This role could suit you if you:

• Enjoy working out of doors, either on your own or with others
• Have basic gardening skills and a few tools – or these can be provided
• Are looking to volunteer two or three hours a month.

We would:

• Identify a grave for you to adopt
• Agree a planting scheme for local conditions and wildlife
• Reimburse planting expenses.
