SPRING HAS SPRUNG

After what seemed to be endless days of dark and wet, we have finally started to emerge into a wonderful world of colour. Recycling and reusing has given way to unexpected visits at the Creative Hub………

……..and as these models just made fleeting visits, we used the daffs that are blooming as more reliable subject matter.

A busy period of maintenance at the glasshouses is now giving way to bringing on seeds and getting ready for planting. Michael one of our gardening volunteers is raring to go, even when the rain returns……

And Alan, who volunteers on a Wednesday, adds: “As a gardening volunteer for the Glasshouses I love working as part of a team and seeing the gardens changing through the seasons and being enjoyed by the whole hospital community and beyond. I also enjoy the friendship, camaraderie,  and creativity of the whole Artlink group, who are very welcoming to me. All of this makes for a great experience, but to top it all, there is usually cake and coffee as well. All in all, a great weekly experience.”

We are looking forward to another productive growing season at the Glasshouses!
