More crocuses planted in Penny Pie park
Planting another purple crocus heart in Penny Pie Park.
The purple crocus is the symbol for the Worldwide Eradication of Polio. Polio is a horrifying disease which can leave children with withered arms and legs, breathing difficulties for the rest of their life, paralysis and even death. It is also highly contagious. The disease can be prevented by immunisation with the polio vaccine. Sadly, after many years of the disease declining there have been more cases identified this year, however it is exceptionally rare in this country as most of us have been vaccinated.
