Skills awards for Wokingham ROC members

Green-fingered gardeners with learning disabilities from Wokingham Resource and Opportunity Centre (WROC) have been working hard on their horticultural skills at the Growing Places project. And at 10.45am on Wednesday April 25, Wokingham Borough Council Mayor Angus Ross will be presenting some of the gardeners with certificates to recognise their skills at The Council Chamber, Civic Offices, Shute End, Wokingham.

The Wokingham gardeners of Growing Places have learned to sow seeds, pot on seedlings and care for plants in the ground and in the greenhouse, as well as developing their creative skills making flower arrangements and hanging baskets for selling. They will be gathering in the Council Chamber to be congratulated on their achievements by the Mayor and will receive certificates that they can use to prove their experience if applying for a job in the future.
