Radio Wey Monday 24th August 2015It was a pleasure to chat to Xenia Norman from Horsell Preserves. This is a great local enterprise making use of    excess fruit from local peoples gardens,  and turning into tasty preserves.  A proportion of the profits then go back into the local community. Sadly Xenia will be standing down for health reasons and so the hunt is on for somebody to take over the bushiness.www.horsellpreserves.co.uk
