We're still celebrating !
Today we have a nomination from Farms for City Children. For fifty years they've offered farm residentials for children and young people. Spending time on one of their farms is a transformative experience, with rewards that last long after they have returned home. Playing a part in transforming the lives of young visitors is Des.
Des has dedicated countless volunteer hours creating murals, banners, ceramics and a commemorative sundial for the Farms for City Children 50th anniversary, inspiring children through art while leaving a lasting legacy at Nethercott House in Devon.
On why he volunteers Des said, "I believe deeply in our mission to help young people thrive. Through art, I have brought creativity, joy and learning to Nethercott House, creating a lasting legacy that celebrates our 50 years of transforming children's lives."
Thanks to Farms for City Children for highlighting Des' creative contribution to your work.
