This vibrant garden is a heartfelt tribute to the fostering community, symbolising unity, diversity, and connection.
It celebrates the intertwining lives of children from various backgrounds, foster carers, their families, and dedicated staff. A place of joy and shared experiences, it highlights the richness that embracing difference brings.
The garden’s design, inspired by the Tusla logo, features colourful planting to reflect Tusla’s welcoming ethos. Two entry routes represent varied experiences: one, a tapestry lawn symbolising turbulent beginnings; the other, a bold, modern path to engage teenagers. A central space with built-in benches and lively bean bags fosters togetherness, evoking family celebration with picnic-style charm under bunting-laden pergolas.
Towards the back lies the “Safe Haven”, offering interactive play and cosy nooks where children can bond and grow. This immersive space inspires, educates, and celebrates the fostering journey – a testament to the connections that unite and nurture communities.
