The final biodiversity-themed event of Green Week was a triple dedication of the Swift sculpture, the Poetry Trail and the Healing Garden. The Mayor congratulated and thanked all those involved in the three initiatives before inviting Simon Groves to join her in cutting the ivy ribbon. After enjoying a reading of the poem on the verge, some of those present visited Ford Road cemetery to listen to the recording of the poem there, before visiting the Healing Garden at the surgery.
