The Radio gardener, Jean Griffin, spoke with Tony Williams about what you should and shouldn’t be doing in your garden at this time of year, and also preparing for spring.
The Rector from St Nicholas Church in Godstone, is going to Skydive for charity.
Reverend Peter O’Connell would like to raise £500 in support of the Group B Strep Support charity. Group B Streptococcus is the leading cause of infant mortality in the UK yet most infections are preventable. The charity informs and supports families and health professionals about the life-threatening infection.
Peter decided to arrange the fund raising event after holding the funeral of baby Eleanor who sadly died at just 2 days old from sepsis triggered by Group B Streptococcus infection.
Reverend Peter O’Connell spoke with Susy Radio’s Neil Munday about the condition and how he hopes the Skydive will help the cause.

A local project begins tomorrow to create a lullaby for Crawley through a series of online workshops.
Murmuration Arts is running The NightLight Lullabies project, a free online six-week programme especially for parents. Participants can join the Zoom workshops to share and reflect on their journeys to parenthood. They will then collectively write a lullaby for Crawley over the six weeks.
The project is run in partnership with Leonardslee Gardens and Crawley Museum and is funded by Heritage Lottery. Once it’s been produced, there are plans for the new lullaby to have a wider audience when it will be presented at Crawley Museum throughout April and May as part of an exhibition.
Shan Robins found out more about the project from Marion Duggan, Artistic Director at Murmuration Arts:
The lullaby you can hear in this feature is the Lullaby for Leonardslee which the Murmuration Arts team arranged and produced last year. It was commissioned by Leonardslee Gardens and Leonardslee Illuminated and funded by Heritage Lottery and Arts Council England in partnership with Crawley Museum.
This lullaby was co-written in collaboration with local mothers:
