Summary
Could you help Broadway Community Gardens create a new wildlife pond?Detailed description
Could you help Broadway Community Gardens create a new wildlife pond? Saturday April 20th, join the garden team and wildlife charity Froglife for a fun packed day of pond creation. It will mostly involve digging! Whether its one shovelful or a whole day’s workout, any help would be much appreciated. All ages and abilities welcome. From 10am onwards.
There will be refreshments provided and a folk music session later in the afternoon.
The pond will become a much-needed haven for wildlife, as well as a fantastic resource for education and wellbeing.
Getting there
About Froglife
The project focus is on engaging with people with dementia living at home, with mild to moderate dementia or memory loss symptoms. We also encourage anyone supporting these individuals to attend our sessions, to enable people with dementia to attend our activity sessions safely, and with an additional aim to support the wellbeing of informal care givers.
As lockdown eases and group sessions are once again possible, we are looking at restarting our outdoor sessions. We have guidelines and strict safety procedures in place to keep our staff, volunteers and participants safe.
Re-establishing the confidence of individuals in returning to outdoor group activities is a challenge during this time, but it is also highly important. The support of a willing volunteer activity assistant would be fantastic.
