Intervention period: 8 months
Beneficiaries: Visitors to the garden, wildlife.
Location: City of Lincoln
Description: Green Synergy is proud to be supported by the Community Matters Green Spaces Fund which is supporting us to develop a Willow and Hazel Grove on Hillside garden.
the project will enable the development a new and improved green space by creating a wildlife-rich new habitat from a brown field site area.

I was merchandise manager, marketing and communications departmental lead, and departmental finance officer for the past four years at the University of Lincoln Sports Centre and Shop. Prior to this, I worked as a veterinary assistant for 9 years at a village, first opinion small animal veterinary practice, and towards the latter end of my veterinary career, I decided to return to university to pursue a degree in business and management. After finishing my studies, I took a gap year and travelled around New Zealand. I own a miniature dachshund called Sully and a naughty pony called Woody, who both take up most of my time at weekends and evenings. Interests include horse riding (show jumping, XC and drag hunting with the Cranwell Bloodhounds), baking, football, interior design and travel. I also have a love of house plants and my collection continues to grow. One of my favourite pastimes is going out for coffee and cake! My role at Green Synergy is Finance and Office manager, and I hope to use my skills to assist the charity’s development and the community it serves. I enjoy challenging the status quo and introducing new ideas whenever possible. Having only worked in the private and public sectors, working in the third sector will provide me with additional skills and insight, a journey which I am very excited to be part of.

I enjoy this role because of the variety of work and the ability to incorporate my different passions and share them with young minds. Using gardening, craft and games to educate and support our community has made such a difference to my own life. I have always wanted to work with children and being able to do a job that impacts lives and drives their passion for the environment has been extremely rewarding for me. Watching as children gain more interest in growing their own plants and wanting to be more involved with the things we do, has been amazing. I am continually learning and can’t wait to see what the future holds.
