Our community have helped Catherine get to where she is in motorsport.
We now have plenty of time on our hands to give something back to the community.
The current project is to supply as many of these swans to both the elderly and vulnerable who live in our area. They will be planted one side with a mint plant and the other flowers. These will go with essential care packages that will be delivered to the door. The smell of the mint will take away the constant smell of hand sanitiser and flowers will help with mental health.

We have been selling some of her hand made swan planters to help fund the materials for project. This has gone towards buying more flowers, paint, zip ties and compost. Our goal is to make as many as possible.
Any extra funds will be used to expand the project by giving hanging baskets etc to care homes or donated to or local covid19 emergency supply packs if supply’s are low. If your in a position where you can help.
please donate a little on the link below. Every little helps.
Little gift to Bowburn youth centre. Think we have gone a little crackers on the flowers 🌷
!!!! News flash !!!! just had a cracking request along with a wonderful donation as a random act of kindness. He wants us to supply unpainted swans to his local care home so some the residents can enjoy painting there own. Not only is this a cracking idea it’s saving us stacks of time so we can simply make more. He says he wants to do it in memory for those who have died 2020. Thank you Colin.
the more we receive in donations the further we can expand the project

This was a must as Catherine’s Grandma (Carol Potter) spent many hours volunteering in the building next door to this care home. Carol would cook hot meals for the elderly every week along with other activities. I’m sure she will be looking down on her grandkids and be extremely proud.
We gave them a hand made planter for the residents to have fun planing.
This is our local care home, the area where the staff go out for a well deserved five minute brake.
We decided to tidy up the planer pop in some fresh flowers, we then give it a lick of funky paint.
Please keep the donations coming. This is where you money is going.
That little strawberry is a special gift for a very special gentleman who lives in the home.
We can’t name him for legal reasons he is a resident who loved to look after this particular box, unfortunately he is now too ill to leave his room. He wishes he could he could still help look after the gardens. This will go into his room so he can look after it himself.
