Collisdene Care Centre in Strathaven celebrates community roots with unique ‘Trees of Life’ gesture

13/03/2024

Collisdene Care Centre in Strathaven, made up of three unique and welcoming houses operated by Canterbury Care, has thanked several pivotal members of its community with exclusive Trees of Life artworks.

The unique initiative underscores the appreciation and bond between the care centre and its local community partners and friends.

The Trees of Life, a symbol of growth, support, and mutual care, were presented to an array of recipients, including Stonehouse Hospital, Strathaven Academy,  Alba Medical Group Strathaven Practice, Avondale radio station, Strathaven fire station, Down's Syndrome Scotland, Boots UK, Sainsbury's, and the Community Bus, among others.

These gifts, made by the residents, serve to highlight the invaluable support and generosity extended by these organisations and individuals to the residents and staff of Collisdene Care Centre.

Rosie Brennan, the activities coordinator at Collisdene Care Centre, shared her thoughts on the initiative: "The Trees of Life are a tribute to the incredible network of support we are fortunate to have. Each branch of these trees represents the strength and nurturing our friends and partners have generously provided, allowing our residents to flourish. We are always moved by the dedication and kindness shown towards our home. This gesture is a small token of our gratitude."

The collaboration and contributions from these community members have been instrumental in enhancing the lives of those residing at Collisdene Care Centre, offering them opportunities to engage, connect, and enjoy a richer, more fulfilling life experience.
