For three years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Acacia health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $1,350. It will serve about 376 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in May and everyone is invited. We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $1,350 goes: • Materials: $1,000 • Tools hire and delivery: $115 • Safety equipment and signage: $235 I hope life is good to you.

    Keep going, Yasmin. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Greetings from Takoradi

    • Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Nice.
