Rainbow project for Men’s Shed

Members of the Men’s Shed have been very pleased to support and complete 2 important projects for the community of San Fulgencio.

Both of the projects are for the Garden of Reflection, which is used as an area of reflection and memory by people who wish to remember those who have passed away.

The Men’s Shed hope you like the finished project.
