Default Children? Grandchildren? Non gardening

...
When young children are involved in an accident or some other traumatic
experience, they need to be calmed and one of the ways this is being done
is
to give TLC. A scheme which started in Sussex, spread to Hampshire and the
Isle of Wight and is now in 32 counties is to equip Ambulances with a
little
supply of TLC's to give to the children to love and to keep. It gives them
something to concentrate on and has a very good soothing effect.

TLC's? Little Teddy Bears and the scheme is called Teddies with Loving
Care.

As I said all ambulances in Sussex, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight are
equipped with these. Are they in your county? Just how far has the scheme
spread and does anyone know of any other place where traumatised children
might be and received a TLC?


Try as I might, I've read this a dozen times and I cannot see it's relevance
to gardening, could someone please tell me where I'm going wrong?
