Glenwood Home's sheltered Courtyard needs improvements
Glenwood Home in Timaru, is home to 42 residents who are frail and elderly, some at hospital level of care. Elderly folk need a dose of sunshine every day and we wish to make our courtyard a place of choice for our residents. We plan some shade sails, some raised gardens, a few activities like a basketball hoop and badminton set etc. The decking needs replacing as it gets mossy in the winter and is unsafe. In short we will be making this a great and interesting outdoors area that is safe for our residents. We intend to maximise this space and maximise its use.
