Hey, I have signed up for this event but have practically no experience in gardening. Will it be alright for me to join in? I understand if it would better for me to opt out of this one if I could be too much of a liability.

Hi Ruchi, don't worry and you will learn during the session. We all started there and we have experienced volunteers amongst The Canal & River Trust and Goodgym Ealing. See you Sunday. If you don t feel comfortable on the day you can decide to leave or do a litterpick(I will have one with me)
