Concern over the Covid-19 , also known as the Coronavirus, has led to the postponement of 'The Hidden Horticulturists' talk which was due to be given next Monday, 16 March, at the Chiswick Memorial Club, Bourne Place, W4 2EL.

The guest speaker, Fiona Davison has agreed to give the talk on 19 October instead.

The event is part of the series of talks organised by the Brentford & Chiswick Local History Society.

The organisers said on their website; "After a careful discussion we have agreed with our speaker that it would be best to postpone her talk on 'The Hidden Horticulturists'. We believe it is a wise precaution to avoid infection while the nature and rate of the spread of Corona Virus is unpredictable.

"This means that we will not have a B&CLHS meeting on 16 March. We are sorry to disappoint members and others who were planning to come along but we hope to reschedule the talk as part of our future programme."

We've always done that and won't be changing, in fact we'd like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.
