South Oxfordshire MP Boris Johnson is helping an environment group celebrate four successful years' work.

As a supporter of the landfill tax credit scheme, which helps the environment, he will be at the fourth annual meeting of the Trust for Oxfordshire's Environment.

The trust, set up in 1998, works with other groups distributing the 20 per cent of the landfill tax paid by waste management companies that goes towards environmental campaigns.

Mr Johnson will attend the meeting at the River and Rowing Museum in Henley on Friday, November 29. Projects countywide have attracted £1.5m.

They include support for village halls, recreation grounds and church restoration schemes.
