How long have you volunteered at SGCT?
Here for 6 years.
Why did you get involved?
I started volunteering after seeing a poster at the gatehouse, the idea being to fill in time before collecting my grandson from nursery. I have since become addicted!
What’s the best thing about volunteering at SGCT
I enjoy the moderate physical work outside, rather like large scale gardening. Every time I am at the cemetery I find something new a ,fragment of history , or some piece of the natural world ,or gardening. Working with the group is a great experience in cooperation, friendship and humour.
Why should people get involved?
Be involved and get a different view of landscape and life.
What’s your favourite part of the landscape, building and/or monument at SGC and why?
The two monuments which have inscriptions that give a more positive view of death than usual “living on in hearts “, and “Promoted to Glory .”
