The organisers of a summer festival at allotments in Oxford are encouraging local residents to get involved.

Restore wants support and ideas for its annual festival, which will be held on Saturday, August 16, at the Elder Stubbs Allotments, in Rymers Lane, Cowley. The event will feature music, craft displays and children's entertainment.

Festival organiser Keith Birnie said: "Having a wide range of participants means the festival reflects the diversity of the area.

"The aim is to get people to have a go and get involved."

Restore is a charity offering training for people who have experienced mental health problems.

If you would like to help to organise the event, or to book a stall, call Mr Birnie on 01865 747176.
