Ms J’s wish was to visit her home and her local community garden
There is something about home that nothing else can replicate.
For Ms J, her home is her sanctuary. It’s the place where she feels the most herself. The most at peace. On this morning, it was exactly where she needed to be.
Greeted by her husband and her dog, Ms J entered the familiar surroundings with a beaming smile, falling back into the comfort of her own space. Her garden, her knick-knacks and the joy of being back where she belongs.
But the morning didn’t finish there.
From home, Ms J was able to make her way to the local community garden, a place where she poured much of her time, nurturing the growth of her local community. Waiting for her were her friends.
A morning of peace and belonging.
