The garden service going strong
Getting out in nature is great for physical, mental, and emotional health. However, a decline in mobility, health challenges, or a lack of time can make getting outside and enjoying nature difficult for some people, even more so for those with an overgrown, unsafe garden. AnglicareSA’s Garden Services team can help with light gardening tasks a person might no longer be able to do safely, such as the upkeep of lawns, edge trimming, and essential pruning for access areas, to the maintenance of trees, hedges, and shrubs. AnglicareSA Team Leader, Garden Services, Glenn Powell, said the service aimed to help make customers’ gardens safe and accessible. “We want to make our customers’ gardens safer and easier to move around so that they can continue to enjoy them without the physical strain,” Glenn said.
“It’s so satisfying to see the garden transformed in each home I visit. “These services enable our customers to enjoy their gardens more.” With the help of AnglicareSA’s Garden Services and Glenn, who visits fortnightly, customer Jude can now maintain her garden with ease. “It’s been a pleasure to have a knowledgeable gardener like Glenn helping me,” Jude said. “I can do certain things, but he’s able to do the hard work. “It means that I can stay in my rather large garden and know that it’s going to be beautiful, well-kept, trimmed, and a great place for me to relax in.”
