Lindsay and I met Sandy at 10:30 on Kennington Park Road. She gave us a tour of the communal garden which looked beautiful on the gorgeous sunny Saturday we were there! The garden had recently had a bench donated by a local garden centre which needed some TLC. Lindsay and I spent the hour and a half sanding the bench to get it ready for a new lick of paint. We were joined by Georgina (Sandy's daughter) and a few of the other residents. Sandy worked out the front trimming the hedge and another resident helped with sweeping. It was wonderful spending the sunny morning with the residents at Kennington Park road and we hope to be back in the future to see the bench fully restored! To top off a good morning Lindsay and I were able to take some rhubarb home with us from the garden.
