Hide AdHannah said: “With recent events our service has been more in demand than ever and we wanted to highlight the need for wellbeing and involve our service users for mental health awareness week.
“As a team, we have decided to focus our theme around gardening and new beginnings. We are aiming to give each client user a small pot, some soil and seed to plant along with a wish for their future, or something they would like to achieve or build on.
“We hope that our service users are inspired by this, and also aim to share pictures of the beautiful flowers developing to spread hope in these difficult times.”
