Garden mission

Date published: 24 July 2009


VISITORS flocked to a fund-raising cottage garden to raise cash for the Oshandi AIDS Trust in Namibia.

The Open Garden Weekend, in Long Lane, Dobcross, allowed green-fingered residents to explore an intimate cottage garden, browse the herbs and vegetables and buy plants.

Tea, coffee and home-made cake were also available. The Oshandi Aids Trust in Namibia (OATIN) was formed between Saddleworth Parish Church, the Community Link and the Church of the Holy Spirit, Oshandi, 11 years ago.
