Spring Sunshine and Gardening Joy at Dunwood Manor
At Dunwood Manor in Hampshire, the arrival of spring has brought sunshine, fresh air, and a renewed sense of energy. Residents have been making the most of the warmer weather by spending time outdoors—relaxing with a good book, enjoying refreshing drinks, and embracing the joys of gardening.
Growing Together with Portable Planters
One of the most exciting additions this season has been the introduction of portable vegetable gardens. These clever planters have proven to be a big hit, offering residents the chance to grow strawberries, tomatoes, and a variety of fragrant herbs. Because they’re mobile, they can be brought directly into residents’ rooms—ensuring everyone has the opportunity to get involved, no matter their level of mobility.
Whether sowing seeds or simply enjoying the scents of freshly turned soil and budding plants, these moments of connection with nature offer therapeutic benefits and a sense of fulfilment.
A Meaningful Part of Daily Life
Gardening is just one element of the varied lifestyle and events programme at Dunwood Manor, designed to enrich residents’ lives and promote wellbeing. It encourages creativity, provides purpose, and often sparks fond memories of time spent in the garden.
