Our Garden of "Music and Play" at Bord Bia Bloom 2024
We were thrilled to have been present at Bord Bia Bloom this year. Our show garden, “Music and Play,” designed by the award-winning Declan McKenna, was honoured with a Silver Gilt award.
The garden was created to show how supporters of Children’s Health Foundation bring joy to sick children in Children’s Health Ireland through music and play.
Â
The garden symbolizes the healing power of nature, reflecting the essence of the new Children’s Hospital gardens. These spaces offer solace and fresh air to patients, parents, and healthcare staff.
Music and play are vital for the well-being of hospitalised children, providing moments of joy, normality, and serenity. The garden showcases how these elements, supported by our foundation, transform the hospital experience for young patients.
Â
We were honored to have nine-year-old Children’s Health Ireland patient Chloe and Children’s Health Ireland Play Lead Carolyn Parse join us to officially open our show garden at this year’s Bord Bia Bloom Festival.
Thank you to all our supporters who visited our garden at Bloom. Your support truly makes a difference in the lives of children at Children’s Health Ireland.                   Â
