Giant jumble for Ukraine at Three Oaks village hall

Jumble aficionados and upcyclers on the hunt for treasures should visit the village of Three Oaks, just outside Hastings, this Saturday, 19 March.

According to the United Nations (UN), more than 2.5m Ukrainians have fled their country. Sarah Watson, wild food expert and Three Oaks resident, is one of the co-organisers.
