We are holding a special celebration to mark the planting of our Sycamore Gap Sapling in the newly created sensory garden at Lavender Fields Care Village. The Sapling is one of just 49 that were nurtured following the tragic destruction of this iconic tree. We were honoured to be donated a sapling by the National Trust. The planting ceremony will take place on World Alzheimer's Day (September 21st). The garden will be a place of solace for families living with dementia, with the tree at it's centre as a symbol of resilience and hope for younger people living with dementia. If you would like to be there to see the planting of the tree, please RSVP to Amy at [email protected] 🌳

Last week the Time Out Together groups visited Carlton Lodge / North Yorksire Youth. Our task was to remove a dead hedge and then do some problem solving problems round the lake. A great day of working and working together. Our Time Out Together groups are outward bound days out for younger people with dementia. They run weekly in Harrogate, York and Scarborough.
