Last year, St Michael's Hospice Charity Shop ran an appeal to build a Garden of Memories in the grounds of their hospice, for the patients and their visitors to relax in a bit of serenity. Well, today was the official opening, and prior to the big event, I had a walk around with my camera...

A tremendous achievement, from a hospice that not long ago many thought would never open. It appears to be going from strength to strength, helping many people, and their families.

Thanks to people like Geoff Ecclestone, it will continue to do so!

It is a wonderful facility that supports the people of Paphos, and further afield.

It was saddening to learn from Dom's blog that Geoff's wife Molly passed away in the Hospice on 20 Feb this year..

Belatedly, Geoff, please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your dear wife. I know how it feels, so can fully emphasise with you. May she rest in peace...
