A VALE middle school is looking for a helping hand for a new growing group.

Blackminster Middle School, which is in the heart of the growing community, is starting a group about growing your own fruit and vegetables.

The club is also set to have some chickens and ducks to look after.

But they are looking for some help when to equip the children properly and some advise on how to grow the best crops.

Laura Hosking, from the school, has been organising the group.

She said: "We are looking for help with this we need equipment, donations, tips, advise and also man or woman power. We have a pond and it needs a bit of TLC."

Anyone that can offer some help should contact Laura Hosking on lhosking@blackminster.worcs.sch.uk.
