After two market launches before the first containment, the Communal Center for Social Action from Loudeac succeeded in having a third validated in July 2021. Thus, the project of the future large garden of the’Ehpad Brocéliande was finally able to begin.
The period of health crisis has shown how access to an outdoor, secure and reassuring space is essential for the well-being of everyone, especially our residents.
Thus, since October 2021, the little exploited part of the square Abbé Robin is under construction. This future garden of 1000 m2 will consist of several ingredients that will improve the well-being of residents. “This project will allow our professionals to ensure ever better the quality of the life course of our Seniors, while meeting their needs and their families”, summarizes Daniel Coguic, social affairs assistant.
Garden composition
Paths, lighting and furniture will be grassed and embellished with plants by the city’s green space teams. The four magnificent cedars and maple trees, already on site, will be preserved in order to contribute to the natural appearance of the place.
We have chosen plants that bloom all year round. The aim is to avoid creating an atmosphere of sadness in this garden. In addition, we have favored the fruit side. This will allow residents to taste the fruits.
A vegetable patch will also be set up. “This will make it possible to organize activities, and that the elderly can remember their garden”, indicates Christine Burial, director of the structure.
A PRM ramp will be installed to improve accessibility. “The main entrance will be located at the level of the entertainment room. Two more will be installed in the restaurant. There will be access through a door for families, ”adds Christine Defin.
The whole will be surrounded by a palisade, which can be decorated with exhibitions from time to time. “The goal is also to restore the image of the Abbé Robin square”, specifies Guillaume Dorge, responsible for the city’s communications.
This vast project represents an investment of 230 000 € TTC, co-financed by the City (€ 50,000) and by the Brocéliande nursing home. It should be finished by late spring 2022.
