HandsOn London | 38 Turner Street, Whitechapel |London | E1 2AS | Charity No: 1140291 Brighten Up London Volunteering Opportunities London became the world’s first National Park City last year, but much work still needs to be done to ensure that everyone can enjoy nature and the outdoors. Since the launch of our Brighten Up London 3 years ago, we have been working with volunteers to enhance London’s green spaces and to make them as accessible as possible to the public. Last year, over 2500 volunteers gave their time to brighten up charity farms and community spaces, create wildlife habitats in parks and to build outdoor classrooms and nature trails across London. The Covid-19 pandemic has emphasised the importance of spending time outdoors and further exposed the lack of access to green spaces for so many families across the UK, despite what the statistics say. At HandsOn London, we aim to increase access for families in confined spaces, schools, community and exercise groups, dog walkers and tourists. We continue to work closely with our horticultural partners, idverde, to support their work in local communities. Volunteers have always been the vehicle for HandsOn London’s activities and we’re always looking to grow our network – we need your help!
