Members of The Royal Parks Guild offer their time and expertise to The Royal Parks, associated organisations and apprentices. These services range from providing expert advisors, such as landscape planners for major projects; gardeners for the annual “Ask the Expert Days” held at Regent’s Park and Kensington Gardens; organising horticultural master classes where “hands on” demonstrations are given to large groups covering a number of subjects; training park volunteer gardeners, and; assisting and mentoring apprentices to help with any queries relating to their course.
