Gary Burton, manager of the Wath-based organisation, described the new structure as a camel that was then evolved by the creators.
Since last summer, the sensory garden at the community centre has gained multiple new tin structures created by the adults that attend, with the help of local artists.

Adults with learning disabilities who attend the centre made different patterns on sheets of tin to create the animals.
The adults range in age from 23 to 79.
