Chelsea flower show is now in full swing and has proved to be a huge sucess for the places of Change garden which housed the fence and arches made by Spark. The garden won a silver medal which is fantastic and makes us all extremely proud to have been a part of it, it is also great as it means that more people are becoming aware of the great causes we have all been working for.

Myself and some of the service users were up at Chelsea yesterday and I couldnt believe how big it was. It was certainly impressive and there were a lot of people very keen to here about our work so I reckon we might be getting busier and busier which is brilliant!

Alongside all the excitment of the flower show it has still been business as usual and myself and the service users have been working very hard to get the gallery ready for our first exhibitions in the middle of the summer. There has been a lot of paint over clothes and in hair but it is definitely begining to take shape. All we are waiting on now is our carpet!

Thanks to Charlie our entrance hall is now revamped with a nice, bright, summery floor.

I hope you have all been enjoying the sun, it was much welcomed by myself, I just hope it stays with us now especially with the approaching bank holiday weekend.

I will let you know how we get on with the carpet soon. Have a great weekend!
