💜'Chosen with Love by Our Volunteers'
This month, meet our Irish Heritage Trust volunteer Brigid.

Brigid is a volunteer that wears many hats at Strokestown Park. Brigid has worked on projects in the house, helps out at events and many visitors will have seen her wonderful seasonal displays in the Woodland Café and Visitors Centre but the Walled Garden is where you can most often find her.

Brigid has chosen the winter border as somewhere she would love visitors to see. It is at the top end of the garden and is planted with mainly white flowering plants. Brigid has undertaken a very large project to restore it to its former glory with the help of the gardening staff.

2026 is International Volunteer Year. If you are interested in volunteering at Strokestown Park, we would love to hear from you.
