AN OPEN Garden event is being held at Woodend House later on this month.

On Sunday, July 24, there will be homemade teas, a plant sale and a children's trail at the Woodend property.

Admission to the event is £3.50 - children enter for free - and it runs from 11am to 5.30pm.

All the proceeds go to the National Garden Scheme that supports nursing and caring charities such as Macmillan Cancer Care, Marie Curie nursing and Help the Hospice.
