Raise the curtain

If your young ones are bouncing off the walls, settle down to watch the free West End production of The Wind in the Willows. Follow the adventures of Toad (Rufus Hound) and his riverbank chums before downloading an activity pack and the original book by Kenneth Grahame, both for free

Flowers forever

While the real-life RHS Chelsea Flower Show has been cancelled, you can still experience gardening excellence with its online version, in what would have been show week, 19-23 May. Bringing designers, growers and exhibitors together, the virtual Chelsea will share the joy of gardening. Details are still being worked out so keep visiting the RHS website or their social media for information.
