The Big Picture - Garden of life

This water fountain is one of the features of a new £30,000 outdoor area at Clockwork Nursery in Audenshaw, Greater Manchester.

This water fountain is one of the features of a new £30,000 outdoor area at Clockwork Nursery in Audenshaw, Greater Manchester.

Ten-year-old Ria Stonehouse, who has cerebral palsy, attends the after-school club and was one of the first to try it out.

Ria – whose mum Michelle is the nursery manager – is now able to walk after the local community helped raise thousands of pounds for an operation on her spine at the St Louis children’s hospital in Missouri, USA.

Nursery owner Lorna Meredith said, ‘We opened in September last year after spending £400,000 renovating the building, which was a former church. We had a large garden area with a lot of potential so I spoke to a few designers.’

The new facility was designed by Creative Play.
