Louise Flynn, Divisional Marketing Manager for McCarthy Stone, said: “We’re so thrilled to welcome retirees to Alavana Place to see what kind of beautiful bouquets they can put together during this demonstration. At McCarthy Stone, it is so important to us that we connect with the local community that we build in, which is why we are working with a local florist right on the doorstep of the development.”

Katie, from Made in Flowers, adds: “We couldn’t be more excited to visit Alavana Place and put on a flower arranging demonstration for the homeowners and other local retirees. Being able to create a stunning bouquet is a real art and can hopefully help to make their potential new home at Alavana Place even brighter.”
