Tauranga Hospital's Child and Youth Outpatients Clinic has been gifted a brand new children's playhouse thanks to New Zealand Certified Builders.
The playhouse was one of three donated throughout the region and built by Bay of Plenty apprentices as part of NZ Certified Builders recent Apprentice Challenge competition.
NZCB Tauranga districts president Paul James said members had seen first-hand the impact the Child and Youth Outpatients Clinic had on supporting local children and their families through serious health difficulties.
James said the experience was what promoted the donation of the playhouse.
"Some of us have visited the clinic in the past with our own children, so we were particularly pleased to show our appreciation for the great service it provides and hope the clinic's young patients enjoy the fun and relaxing addition," he said.
