Massive thanks to @Tesco_SouthEast #bagsofhelp for incredible help funding our Healey House Sensory Garden.

The garden will focus on plants that can be enjoyed through other senses - smelt, touched - for the residents with #SightLoss

As we age, our vision changes – it’s a normal part of aging. But some changes, if left untreated, can result in vision loss. That’s why it’s important to recognize what vision changes are normal as we age and what changes are not normal. #EyeCare https://t.co/d2YMdb8I1t
