Quotes from Carers
‘Today was brilliant, the weather less brilliant but a most enjoyable day at the Gardens. There is so much to see that although I attended last year I discovered totally new areas to visit today’

‘On behalf of my sister and myself, we would like to say a huge thank you to Promas for the visit to the lost gardens of Heligan and also to Susan for volunteering her time.
We had a magical day full of walking, connection with other carers, learning about the history and plants&trees, thunder, sun and biblical rain! Luckily we had the correct clothes so enjoyed the whole day – the thunder made the day completed as I do love a thunderstorm!’
