Giving back to the Community

Ronald McDonald House Perth Children’s Hospital gives seriously ill children the best gift of all – their families. The warm and supportive home-away-from-home provides the whole family with a comfortable place to stay and peace of mind, knowing they can stay together, within their child’s hospital.

In 2023, The Garden will be adopting a room at Ronald McDonald to help support a family going through serious medical illness with their child.

Our Teddy Bear Hospital launched in November 2022, in conjunction with medical students at Notre Dame in Fremantle, will further support the Ronald McDonald House with all proceeds going straight to families in need.

Tips for stress-free mealtimes

Kids have evolving tastebuds from a very young age. Infants have around 30,000 tastebuds spread throughout their mouths. By the time we hit adulthood, only about a third of these remain. So eating is an intense experience for children. Children are tasting food with higher intensity and flavour than adults. As part of evolution, they are also hard wired to find calories to support their growth and weight. One of the sugary flavours they seek out is…

Understanding Paediatric Anxiety

Anxiety might just be the fastest growing childhood mental health issue in Australia. Several universities researching child behaviour estimate that between 8-22% of children now experience anxiety more intensely and more often than their peers.

Testosterone deficiency in men

A fascinating, often forgotten about hormone for men is testosterone. It seems to be a test that is often missed in general health checks. There might be some embarrassment from the male, not wanting to ask, combined with the GP who might not click that this hormone could be playing a role. Whatever the case, testosterone deficiency is an interesting area of medicine and shouldn’t be ignored. This isn’t an exclusive problem to men either, testosterone deficiency…
