Borde Hill Garden, near Haywards Heath, Opens the New Harry’s Adventure Playground.

To commemorate its 45th year, Borde Hill Garden has built a NEW Adventure Playground to provide an inspiring and health-enhancing play area for the benefit of children in all age groups. This facility is away from a number of endangered tree species in our original playground site and is now in the more a�rac�ve parkland overlooking the lakes. This move protects the ecology of Sussex whilst ensuring our stunning, botanically-rich Garden brings pleasure to families for many years to come.

Designed by Julian Cochrayne, Chelsea Flower Show award winner, the faced and natural wood construc�on includes climbing frames, balance beams and a challenging zip-line for older children, a safe, fun area for toddlers.

Andrewjohn Stephenson Clarke, Chairman of the Directors for Borde Hill Garden Ltd, explained: that It has been named ‘Harry’s Playground’ a�er my son.’’

NEW from America - the Writing CLAW As any parent will tell you, learning to write correctly is a challenge for most young children. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce the Wri�ng CLAW, a genuinely innova�ve, never-seen-before gripper which is guaranteed to give a true tripod grip consistently.

How it works: the flexible CLAW covers the thumb, index and middle fingers and has a hole in the centre for a pen, pencil or crayon to fit. This way the fingers are gently coaxed into the right posi�on every �me the child writes.

The CLAW is being used in schools, occupa�onal therapy & homes across America, with great success. It encourages children to develop good wri�ng habits and those with special needs can focus on handwri�ng instead of the mechanics of pen holding.

Sizes and Prices: Small - for 3-6yrs, in blue, lime green, orange, yellow, purple, pink and red, £6.99 for a pack of 5 Medium - 6-12yrs, in red and blue, £7.70 for a pack of 5 Large - 12yrs - adult, in red and blue, £8.50 for a pack of 5 (Discounts available for school bulk orders)

To buy the Wri�ng CLAW, or for more informa�on, call Great Products 4U, the sole UK distributor, on 01892 862311 or email mccout06@aol.com.
