Bright Horizons shines its light on Northampton refuge

The Bright Horizons Foundation for Children opened its latest Bright Space at Eve’s domestic violence refuge, located in Northamptonshire, on 18th August.

The Bright Space, designed by children residing at the refuge, has given a lift to the garden, which is now a fun and enriching environment for fun and games, and rest and relaxation. Included in the makeover are numerous toys and other equipment, a water wall, an outdoor kitchen, plants and flowers, a climbing frame, a new seating area, and new surfacing.

To mark the occasion, refuge staff, volunteers and residents, attended a party in the renovated garden. Christine Morgan, CEO of the refuge, and Cllr Gareth Eales, Mayor of Northampton, officially opened the new Bright Space. Morgan said:

“It offers the children a place to be children and for residents to enjoy the peace and quiet or simply watch the children play.”


Bright Horizons Foundation Development Manager, Emily Harris, added:

“We wanted to make sure the garden reflected everything that Eve and the children asked for, and to create a special place for the children to enjoy.”
