Wish 2

We have found that other areas within the garden which have slabs, tend to move and can be a tripping hazard.

We have priced gazebos of this size and we are looking at a price range of 2500 - 3500. We are fundraising by having a preloved fashion show and hopefully we will raise a reasonable amount towards this. This will be a tremdous asset for our space as it can also be used for any of our garden events throughout the year.
