We then installed four memorial benches, a slab of marble on the wall for memorial plaques to be fitted, and two flower pots which were donated to us. A new path was laid leading down from the Peace Garden to the main path. For the grand open day, we invited the Mayor of Barnsley to unveil the plaque we had installed outside the gate, which also has the times that the Peace Garden gates are open and closed. Since then, we have sold the window grills as ‘memorial windows’, allowing families to have as many plaques as they can fit on the grills. Flower pot holders were installed on each window. We have also seen an increase in demand for memorial plaques, and have fitted four more marble slabs. One flower pot holder with multiple pots has been fitted, but more are to come thanks to a donation from the Wombwell Darts Charity team.
There are two candle holders for tea lights, which we monitor daily and people take good care of. We have a ‘Remembering the Friends’ marble memorial for the volunteers that have since passed. The Rainbows group paint plant pots and display them in the Peace Garden, too!
