All good things come to those who wait!
At the end of a very busy 18 months, the official opening of the two ‘Golden Gardens’ took place, with a celebration that involved the whole community at a carnival-style event, on Saturday 20th September 2008.
The opening event began at Elliot Crescent, Bedford with refreshments, face painters and a local youth theatre group gave a song and dance performance. The residents from the steering group then led a fancy dress parade, from Elliott Nursery Garden, to the official opening of the Milburn Road garden. Bedford's MP Patrick Hall officially opened Milburn Road’s garden and prizes were awarded for the best fancy dress costumes.
We had a delightful tea party, which included a delicious "Golden Gardens" cake, which was enjoyed by all.
