In summer 2020 we were able to go into the Courtyard Garden to put in some small re-purposed planters and we used some leftover plants to fill them. They created a great atmosphere in the space and inspired us to carry on. This week Vanessa is working on buying materials and doing necessary risk assessments to commence work, hopefully towards the end of February.
