The first was In 2003, when to mark the club's 25th anniversary, members designed, constructed and planted the central courtyard garden around a water feature that had been constructed.
The hospital and its architects were so pleased with the result that they asked Rotary to do the same for the garden on the left at the entrance corridor to the Shooting Star unit.
