What is the Kinder Living Home Show?
Founded by Jeanette Mercer and a team of volunteers the event aims to encourage more sustainable choices in our homes, gardens and daily lives. This year it is taking place at County Hall, North Horsham, Park Street, Horsham, RH12 1XH.
There will be stands, demos and local experts offering advice on saving energy and water, alternatives to plastic, eco friendly decorating and renovation, crafts, textiles and more. There will be repairs of laptops, PCs, small domestic items and clothes, a seed swap and gardening advice.
