Yesterday, the Global Tracheostomy Collaborative hosted their patient and family forum of which Gerard had been a part of many. The team provided an awesome acknowledgment of Gerard’s life and paid tribute to his contributions to the GTC. The  focus of the forum was “The Restorative Power of Nature, featuring a guest speaker  well know to Gerard,  Andrew Laidlaw, Renowned Landscape Architect, Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne, President of Global Gardens of Peace.

Don’t miss Andrew’s powerful message on the positive impact that nature and gardens can have on health and wellbeing. Andrew also spoke about the ‘Food Forest Project,’ of which the late Gerard Stevenson, tracheostomy patient, author and businessman, initiated and was a key driving force.
