Poplar resident awarded for gardening efforts

Joanne lives at one of our residential settings, and over the past several months has been investing time and energy into keeping the gardens neat, tidy and cared for.

She's also experimented with growing her own veggies and herbs, with some of her home-grown mint used to make mint sauce for a delicious Sunday dinner in service.

Joanne has been so excited to do more gardening, that she even offered to help with the gardens at our Whitegates respite service.

Joanne recently joked that she didn't have a certificate for all the hard work she'd put into gardening.

Unbeknown to Joanne, our Marketing Team whipped up a certificate, which was presented to Joanne  by Claire, our Gardening Lead!

Thank you for reading and supporting the work we do, as it all helps in providing a valuable service to autistic people in the East Midlands.
