Much respect for Monty Don. He's doing his bit and more, quietly and with dignity and integrity.

This is such a great 'feel good' story! I love to see this sort of positive thing happening and what better to see the fruits of your labours?

Good on yer Monty. :flower:

Meaningful and inspiring. Two Green Thumbs up.

We have a heap of crime prevention funding being dispersed over here at the mo. Have forwarded the link on as maybe, just maybe we could see that working here for at risk kids.

Thanks Andy. Am trying to track down the book...

Wonderful!! Not only has he fought his own daemons but now he's helping others fight theirs - a dignified hero if ever there was one!!
Actually - he's one of those people you'd love invite to a fantasy dinner party!
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
