Garden update
Garden Update! Hey everyone, Shanice here! I thought I would write a little update for you. Maria has now left Chalk Farm Hotel LDC for a new exciting adventure. 🎕 That means the garden gang are now in the capable hands of Jack and Andy! We also have various members of hotel staff, office staff and trustees helping out while we hire a new support worker. The progress in the garden has been amazing! As I am usually based in the office, popping up to see the secret garden once or twice a week is crazy. There are so many changes happening daily. From new trees being planted to removing big areas of bamboo. So much is being done. The main pond we found a few months back has now been filled in. It would have been lovely to make the large pond a main feature in the garden, but it needed a lot of work, maintenance and money. We also felt it would be too risky to have such a large open area of water for both students and hotel guests. In its place will be a grass area and rockery. Th
