Thank-you for the grant of £200 for Women of Willow Hey
We have purchased seeds and plants and some bamboo and twine to make windchimes
By planting the seeds and plants we are making the area more pleasing to look at and the sensory aspect is much improved also. The bees we have in the hives will be grateful for the pollen which is great for the environment in general
The volunteers have enjoyed getting outside to dig and plant and can see the fruits of their labour and feel proud when others comment on how nice it looks and feels on the site
When it’s pleasant to walk round this helps people feel happy ,it’s an oasis from all the day to day stresses to walk into a green space filled with flowers and uplifting sights and sounds in nature this helps the local community having this beautiful cared for space in the middle of a housing estate
We have had feedback like: “..“this will look lovely and be good to see the flowers grow in the following months, something to look forward to “
