This Mother’s Day Johanna, Charlie and Adam are helping out two very deserving mums: Elyse and her nan, Norma. Elyse has had a rough time over the past couple of years. Her husband, Andrew, died suddenly before the birth of their first child, Zoe, and the pair were left facing a very uncertain future.
That’s when Norma stepped in, building Elyse and Zoe a granny flat right in her own backyard. Elyse and Zoe have gained a loving home but the whole process has left Norma’s backyard looking a little worse for wear.
Better Homes and Gardens are here to change that! The team are creating a beautiful space for Norma, Elyse and Zoe to all enjoy with soft, colourful plants, a deck and a magical cottage-like vibe. It’s the perfect gift for two very special mums this Mothers’ Day.
