FOLLOWING our article asking for donations and assistance sprucing up our garden (Daily Echo, March 9), we have received a fantastic response, from keen volunteers that have already made a start, to those people who donated garden furniture.

We would like to say a very big thank you to you all those who have assisted us with our project.

Queensmead’s garden is looking so much more welcoming already, and will only continue to mature, to what we hope will be a lovely area for our residents and their families to spend their time.

We cannot thank you enough for your generosity, but hope that you will appreciate how much your input means to us.
