During the recent cleanup, it was discovered that some of the painted rocks originally placed at the site had been removed, with some relocated to the memorial cross where 16-year-old Franziska Blöchliger was tragically murdered.
This has left noticeable gaps at the Ribbon Gate.
Parkscape has invited their creative painted rock artists and those with painted rocks at home to contribute by placing new rocks at the Ribbon Gate.
Parkscape says that contributions will help restore the memorial and continue to honour its significant cause.
