It was a glorious day at Hansel, Symington on Saturday 18 th May where over 65 people
gathered to enjoy their annual Strawberry Tea.
Alyson Reid, Hansel’s Employment, Education and Catering Team Lead told us that & we
enjoyed a fabulous day on Saturday at Lindys Strawberry Tea event.
Over 65 people attended, having lunch at Lindy's before being treated to a demonstration on planting a hanging basket.
Our Lindys team and Grounds Maintenance team worked closely together
to ensure everything on the day ran smoothly. We had a raffle, and quiz and guests were kept
entertained learning about how to encourage nature into their garden. Thank you to all who
attended, we’re already looking forward to next year’s event!
