Brentford Voice raising funds for the Hounslow Community Foodbox
Brentford Voice will be holding a Plant Exchange and Sale in the Market Place beginning at 10am on Sunday 12 July.
All proceeds will be donated to the Hounslow Community Foodbox.
Hand sanitiser will be available at the stall and social distancing will be the order of the day. If you wish to purchase items you are advised to bring an appropriate amount of notes and coins.
You can contribute to the event in one or both of two ways
1)Bring along a pot or pots of any surplus plants that you may wish to donate. These will then be sold at a suggested price of £2 per pot.
2) Bring along your surplus plants and exchange them for any others that may take your fancy on the stall. Each exchange will be for a suggested price of £1 per pot.
Brentford Voice would also like to sell any surplus gardening knick-knacks that you may be able to donate. For example plastic flower pots and seed trays are currently in short supply. Other items such as hand tools, canes and twine would be very welcome. Even a gazebo!
You can bring your items along on the day, or alternatively you can drop them off in advance in the front gardens at 46 Lateward Road or 20 Avenue Road
Like Reading Articles Like This? Help Us Produce More This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism. Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets. We’ve always done that and won’t be changing, in fact we’d like to do more. However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do. We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area. A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site. One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute. If you do support us in this way we’d be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor. For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you’d like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT. All payments are made through a secure web site. |
