โWe are all so thankful to Becky whose fundraising will help enhance our new sensory garden. Weโve created a comfortable outdoor lounge area so our residents can enjoy the fresh air and sunshine as much as possible this summer โ when summer finally arrives! Beckyโs money will go towards scented plants and herbs, wind chimes, windmills and more outdoor games to keep everyone entertained.โ
