Our Day Opportunities programme is open ended and is available to anyone over the age of 16. Activities include practical horticulture, customer service, retail and catering/ hospitality. We can work with you to develop employment skills, but the social emphasis means Palmer's is also a great place to meet and make friends!
Open to 16-24 year olds who have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP), Shaw Trust's Supported Internship programme helps people to gain real work experience in a garden centre or horticultural environment. During the Internship you will have the chance to try working in three different areas over a period of 9 months. A Job Coach will support you and help you learn all aspects of the job.
