Winchester to join nationwide picnic
WINCHESTER will be hosting one of ten events that are being organised as part of a national picnic-a-thon'.
It will see around a dozen senior citizens from Tegfield House Residential Care Home in Chilbolton Avenue, and half a dozen carers, treated to free food.
They are being catered for at the historic City Mill in Bridge Street, and the Mayor of Winchester, Cllr Chris Pines, is expected to pay a visit.
The ten picnics are being organised by bread retailer, Warburtons, and will stretch from Scotland to Devon.
The one in Winchester will take place between 5 and 6pm tomorrow (Friday, May 9).
Warburtons is holding the picnics to coincide with national bread week. It is also national mills weekend, which is why the company chose the City Mill as the venue.
In addition to covering the cost of the food, Warburtons is also donating £300 to the mill.
