The Manton Garden project is an opportunity to volunteer your time for the benefit of others. Have a laugh, make a difference and do something different. Why volunteer?• It's an amazing feel-good activity which has been proven to boost self-confidence and a sense of meaning.• It looks great on the personal statement and CV; employers and universities are looking for individuals who show ethical and moral values.• Duke of Edenborough requires you do voluntary work, this is a great opportunity to fulfil that. • It helps people. One reason and arguably the most important reason to get involved is because you want to make others' lives better.What does it actually involve?• Starting after half term in the Saturday activity time we will meet at the college and drive 5 minutes down the road to the Garden project. • We will wack on some music and do some landscaping / gardening / building work for a couple of hours.• Have a tea break half way through.• Then we're done. • We want students to do the jobs they most enjoy.Remember...Every one of us makes a difference to the world, whether we try or not. It is up to use to decide whether the difference we make is negative, neutral, or positive.
