The nursery team recently transformed a corner of the playground into a little garden space! ๐คฉ๐ฟ
Featuring woodchip mulch for natural earthy flooring (very good for putting the diggers to work!) and a variety of plants including our nursery strawberries which weโre excited to see are coming along nicely! ๐๐
What do you think we should plant next? ๐ฑ

Today is the 6 month anniversary of Zizus @ Pavilion! ๐ฅณ
We canโt believe itโs been half a year already since we re-opened the doors at Pavilion, now as part of the Zizus nursery family! ๐
By stepping in during the closure of the previous nursery, we wanted to make sure local children and families could keep having the support they need - and it has been a wonderful journey making this happen! ๐
A big thank you to the local families & community for trusting us in this journey, we look forward to seeing what the future holds for Pavilion! โจ

On 5th June our Operations Director Nicci is taking part in the Headlight Hike Into the Light, walking 10 miles through the night from Cod Beck Reservoir and along the Cleveland Way.
Sheโll set off at 10:30pm and walk right through to sunrise; a really symbolic journey from darkness into light.
Nicci is raising funds for the Headlight Project, a charity working to reduce deaths by su***de in the Tees Valley. Sadly, our region has some of the highest rates in the country, and the impact on families, workplaces and communities is huge.
The Headlight Project supports people whoโve been bereaved by su***de, offers therapy when itโs needed most, and works with schools, businesses and community groups to help prevent more lives being lost.
If youโre able to sponsor her, even a small amount genuinely makes a difference. It helps someone access support at the hardest moment of their life and brings hope to families who really need it.

Thank you so much for reading and for any support. It means a lot ๐
