BEAVERS' ART BRIGHTENS WALLS OF PEH
Colourful artwork by local Beavers has brightened up a hospital corridor. As part of the Community Art project at the Princess Elizabeth Hospital, 200 children from every Beaver colony in the island created a piece of work which is now on display. "Whenever the children do arts and crafts, it just gets put back in a cupboard, which is such a shame, but now they are on display" said Liz Waring, Assistant Bailiwick Commissioner for Beaver Scouts.
