Garden Opens in Chandler’s Ford

Love gardens? Each year hundreds of gardens open to the public through the National Gardens Scheme (NGS).

The National Gardens Scheme was founded in 1927. Individuals were asked to open up their gardens for ‘a shilling a head’.

Christian Aid Week – 10-16 May 2015

Christian Aid week will be from 10th to 16th May 2015. You may have Christian Aid collectors knocking on your door.

Give generously. Here is a real story about Loko from Ethiopia.

With your help, you can help provide cows to vulnerable women in Ethiopia – just £150 is enough to buy a cow and a promising future for someone like Loko and her children.
