The 3TG, wish to establish a Garden of Remembrance in the grounds of their new Community Hub Elm Park Ardrossan. In doing so it will be part of the buildings landscape and be accessible for the peoples of the Three Towns. Be a remembrance for and away to honour those who have fallen in wars and conflicts.

Description

The garden will be a way for community participants of the hub and allotment members to take part in a postive activity around Remembarance and Honouring those who have contribute to our communities in times of war and conflict. The garden will be established by a group of young and older people, it will involve the design and development of the garden that will become part of the hubs landscape, and be seen as unique part of its everyday life at the Hub. Volunteers will become proficient in design and construction and have ownership of the processes therein. Remembarance will be a key theme in the garden, giving people and communities a place to be part of that Remembrance. Native plants and flowers will be 'grown on' by volunteers and planted in the garden, a memorial bench will be put in place. Those taking part in making the garden will learn skills in planning, development and construction. As the work develops, there will workshops and learning opportuniies around practical gardening and horticulture, talks and information sessions to discuss the importance of Remembarance at a community level. As stated, ownership of the garden by the community will be key and that the community take on its upkeep and maintenence. There will also be the production of learning materials and resources relating to the Garden of Remembarance, and its intention.
