Are great! Youngsters get such a bad press but it's not well deserved. My daughter Amy has recently planned and managed a project as part of the O2 Think Big Scheme. She worked with a local care home who look after people with Alzheimer to provide a make over of part of their garden. The Home wanted a seaside theme as many people have happy memories of spending time at the seaside and it help's them remember good times. The team supplied all the materials from the budget donated to them to design and make the wall hanging.
Plain Terracotta pots were painted and filled with pretty flowers, solar lights and windmills.
The whole team worked very hard and it shows volunteering can be fun and rewarding.
You can visit the projects blog at 02 Think Big.
Thanks for dropping in
Sarah
