🌿 Bringing Nature to Life at Alston House 🌸

Our green-fingered residents at Alston House Care Home have been busy creating a beautiful new ‘wild patch’ garden — part of a local greening campaign to support biodiversity and tackle climate change. 🐝🌼

With support from Elly Swanbrow from the Eastleigh Town Greening Campaign, residents planted foxgloves, teasels, and scattered cornflower seeds — all to help encourage bees, butterflies, and other wildlife into our garden.

This is just the start of a blooming journey, and we’re so proud of everyone for their enthusiasm and care for the environment. 💚
