Nigel and Jane are both Trustees of The Frankie Howerd OBE Trust (registered charity number: 1188630) which is raising money to create a community hub in the nearby village of Loxton - please have a look at our website Home - Frankie Howerd OBE Trust
We have now purchased a minibus, thanks to generous grants from National Grid and the National Lottery Community Fund and are looking forward to taking residents in the BS26 area on day trips and outings, and for whatever purpose will be useful. Here we are with our President, Dame Joanna Lumley, who officially received the keys. We all had an "absolutely fabulous" day with her in London recently.
We (as Windsor House Health) organise a "guess the weight of the pumpkin" competition (or similar) each year whereby the closest guess wins £30 towards a treatment. The proceeds, plus an extra amount from us, are then donated to the Children's Hospice South West. Last year we gave them £100. This year we have sold some home-grown Aloe Vera plants at various outlets and have sent the CHSW a cheque for £60.
Our community café in Loxton has now been open for several months. Please support us by popping in for a snack, light meal, coffee etc. as all profit is given to the Trust. Information on our opening times and menu can be found at: FRANKIE HOWERD HUB AND CAFE - Home (weebly.com)
Jane also plays in several bands, orchestras and recorder groups which raise money for local charities. Some are just free concerts that anyone can attend or are ticketed occasions to listen to a variety of great music. Once the events have been confirmed, you will find below posters of these events at which she will be playing. Please support her and the chosen charity. Thank you.
