East 51st Avenue between Knight Street and Fraser Street might be one of the most unassuming streets in Vancouver, but it's recently received a splash of colour thanks to a resident who wanted to share messages of hope during Mental Health Awareness month. Yamolky says she gets the flower petals from her neighbour's garden when they fall off. She says it inspired some of neighbours, who started putting up small flower petal arrangements of their own all along their street. She recently started putting up posters next to the flowers about Mental Health Awareness month, with phone numbers to mental health services and the suicide prevention hotline. (Gian-Paolo Mendoza/CBC)Yamolky's latest arrangement is a message to her father, whose birthday she had to skip due to COVID-19 restrictions.
