			<p>There is no doubt that remodelling a space will give it a whole fresh new look and feel and this is exactly what everyone is talking about with regard to our cottage outdoor area revamp.</p>
<p>The thought behind the project was to turn an outdated, under utilised and dark area into a place that was lighter, brighter and much more inviting.</p>
<p>Now our customers can enjoy gathering and eating their meals outside &#8211; having a “Hamptons experience”.</p>
<p>A special thank you to Denyelle Drury, Allana Barba and Mick Coleman for their hard work in bringing this project to fruition.</p>
<p>Thank you to Clint (Bubba) Maxwell Rendering for the amazing job he did with the rendering.</p>
<p>You may have noticed that our Cottage garden is starting to grow into a beautiful, tranquil space for everyone to enjoy.  For this we would like to extend a big thank you to Wayne Brooks and Damian O’Neill for their part in this beautification project.</p>
<p>The waterfall pond that was previously installed in one of the garden beds under the trees kept filling up with leaves and debris causing it to get very dirty and unsightly so Wayne and Damian had a plan to fix this. They have done a magnificent job building a waterfall fountain feature that proudly sits near the outdoor gazebo area away from the trees and now stays beautiful and clean.</p>
<p>Wayne and Damian have also built several herb boxes out of old timber decking donated by Aimy and Ben Simpson and installed a watering system to keep them flourishing.  More recently they planted out the raised garden bed with gorgeous native plants and grasses.</p>
<p>When you visit our Kingscliff Cottage or our head office, make sure you take the time to have a walk around the garden and look at the amazing work that Wayne and Damian have done.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Creating and maintaining an environment where living things can thrive can have a wonderful flow-on effect for our staff, volunteers and customers, which is why we have added the stunning addition of a fish pond to our Cottage Garden.</p>
<p>From the soothing sounds of rippling water to the calming nature of fish swimming in and out of the reeds, the fish pond will bring a quiet moment of contemplation for all to enjoy. Ponds invite native biodiversity to create a beautiful little ecosystem and attract wildlife like birds, bees, dragonflies and frogs which may make our pond their home. Butterflies and birds pollinate the garden and control pest populations as well.</p>
<p>A huge thank you goes to Bunnings Tweed Heads who, as part of their Hands-on support program, donated the pond and all the necessary pumps etc to Lifebridge.</p>
<p>This donation was made possible by Jack Blades, who thought of the idea in the first place and submitted our application to Bunnings. A huge thank you for your help Jack.</p>
<p>A huge thank you also goes to Ben Simpson and Damien O&#8217;Neill who provided the manpower to get the pond into place in the garden. It is not quite finished yet as there are still some additions to add but when it is finished it will be a beautiful addition to our Cottage Garden.</p>
<p>With a little help from our friends we can achieve wonderful things that will provide joy to our staff, customers and volunteers and that is something worth celebrating so great job everyone!</p>
