If you have passed through the Visitor Information Centre in the last few months you may have noticed the new Visitor Information desk, and more importantly, some new faces behind the desk. Volunteers such as Wendy Antoniak, a member of the Botanical Art Group of the Friends, are now greeting and directing visitors. 

This change has come about in response to a request for assistance from the Gardens. The Friends Council acknowledges that the Gardens is experiencing pressure on resources and that the highest priority must be the horticultural and research functions where staff must be maintained. The situation will be reviewed at the end of the year.

If you would like to volunteer in this role and learn more about the Gardens, please contact Jennifer Salkeld.
