Priti Chapman-Dawe Medical Centre Secretary

Priti finds great joy in her garden, which includes three honey bee hives and a dedicated ‘Grow to Give’ patch. She lovingly grows cut flowers to share with a local care home, bringing beauty and comfort to the residents. Many of the blooms are also used in the dementia clinic, where their scents help spark memories and conversations.
