A new sensory garden has opened at Ty Hafan children's hospice in Sully.

The garden, which was officially opened on Wednesday, April 27 by BBC Radio 2's resident gardener, Terry Walton, will give year-round accessibility for children with life-limiting conditions and their families.

It has been designed to encourage biodiversity, sustainability, and wildlife, helping children to connect with the natural world.

The garden also benefits from willow arches, a woodland den, a covered seating area with access to electricity, and hand-washing facilities.

Victoria Wade, the garden's designer, said: "This is definitely my favourite garden we have ever created. I am really proud of what we have all achieved.

"It's been such an amazing team effort and I have been blown away by the generosity of everyone who has been involved - everyone has gone above and beyond.

'It's been so exciting to see the garden come into bloom this spring and seeing the thousands of bulbs that the volunteers have planted flowering for the first time has been really special."

Greenfingers Charity, the National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Postcode Lottery funded the garden.

Supporters of Greenfingers Charity helped to plant thousands of bulbs and plants and gifts in kind were also generously donated by Evergreen Garden Care, Taylors Bulbs, Jubb Bulbs, and Smart Garden.

Deborah Ho, Ty Hafan's director of Care, added: "T Hafan children's hospice provides care and support for children with life-limiting conditions and their families in Wales at our hospice in Sully.

"The creation of our stunning new sensory garden is a wonderful addition to the coastal environment in which we care for those children and families who use our services.

"Our sincerest thanks go to Greenfingers Charity and its supporters for helping to make this possible, and to Victoria, Joe, and NP Landscapes for their dedication to this project.

"What they have created has far exceeded our expectations and I know that this garden is already an important place for so many."
