About this Event

Situated in Linlithgow and dating from the early 19th century, Learmonth Gardens were donated to the Burgh in 1916 in memory of the Provost of Linlithgow. The gardens are now managed by Burgh Beautiful Linlithgow in connection with West Lothian Council.

This is our first visit to this site. There is a 1500m2 wildflower area which has fallen into disrepair and we will be helping to restore and resow the area.

We encourage volunteers to use our minibus for transport. If you live near this task and wish to make your own way you must ring Debbie on 07510959496 to book a space and for joining instructions.

Please bring your lunch and wear appropriate footwear (boots or wellingtons) and waterproof outdoor clothing.

NEW VOLUNTEERS Please only book one task initially. If you do not attend without letting us know, we may cancel any additional task bookings. If you are under 18 you will need to be accompanied by a guardian. Please contact us to discuss arrangements for volunteering with us, or whether other organisations might be more appropriate.

You can check our website for further information and frequently asked questions.
