Sometimes we have mornings or afternoons in the greenhouse; I like sowing seeds and growing plants on. It’s good to do a task, finish it, then look back and see a real difference. I enjoy everything about working at Hare Hill – I’m not so good at digging and heavy work, but I don’t like to be inactive and I'll have a go at anything that needs doing.
I also volunteer at Lyme Park once a week – patrolling the park or helping in the gardens. It's a much larger place and I enjoy it in a different way; Hare Hill is more intimate. I find volunteering makes you very loyal to a property – you kind of fall in love with a place when you volunteer there, and that’s a very positive thing for me. I really enjoy the company too!
