ETNA SENSORY GARDEN PROJECT

PROGRESS UPDATE

To date we have raised £49k towards our project. To complete the project we have a little way to go so we can complete our project…..

Our Sensory Garden design will allow the local community to use the garden space at their leisure

  • A sensory planting scheme planned and based on sound, touch, smell, taste and sight, central to which are flowers to attract bees and other wildlife
  • New curved bench seating to create relaxing and sociable spaces

  • Improved biodiversity

  • A calm space for all to enjoy
  • Arboreal tree designed areas with the tree variety chosen to suit the space
  • Bicycle racks
