For five years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 23 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Freedom health centre yard, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $1,500. It will serve about 123 people, including local farmers and market traders. 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. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $1,500 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $210 • Permits and inspections: $150 • Materials: $1,140 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Nir
