Steph and her Son, Harvey, from Solihull
“I have been an SCH tenant for almost three years and I am a carer for my son, Harvey.”
Harvey, who is 10 years old, recently had an idea to raise money for the local parkland, Olton Juiblee Park. Harvey wanted to transform an area within the park to a Covid-19 memory garden, where people could go to reflect and remember borough residents who have lost their lives or been affected by the virus.
To raise money, Harvey participated in a fundraising event which included a tombola and raffle raising £1,027!
Harvey’s idea went to Solihull Council in July and Love Soilhull have now agreed the plans. They have marked out the area in the park and will break ground later this year. Love Solihull are also donating a Cherry Blossom tree for the centre piece of the garden. Harvey can’t wait to see his idea become a reality.
