Last week we celebrated the official opening of our beautifully landscaped gardens at Brakendon Close!

Tenants from Brakendon Close were joined by their friends and neighbours from Corton House for a brass quintet performance from Cawston Band and some al fresco refreshments, which raised funds for Alzheimer's Society's Dementia Support Norfolk and Waveney service.

We would like to extend our profound thanks to our tenant Doreen, pictured, who funded the transformation with an incredibly generous donation in memory of her dear sister and fellow Brakendon Close tenant Grace - a beautiful legacy for people to enjoy for years to come!

Grace's favourite colour was purple, so Conkers Landscape & Design Ltd made sure to include some purple planting. We will also be planting the appropriately-named "Amazing Grace" rose bush soon.
