Saffron Walden residents can enter a raffle to win tickets to the BBC Gardeners' World Autumn Fair.

Saffron Walden Town Council announced that the BBC Gardeners' World has donated three pairs of all-day tickets for their Autumn Fair on Sunday, September 1.

The tickets also include access to Audley End House and Gardens.

A BBC Gardeners' World spokesperson said: "The Autumn Fair marks the start of the new gardening season, with seasonal inspiration, expertise, practical workshops, and plants to buy.

"This boutique gardening event, in a majestic setting, features Showcase Gardens and Beautiful Borders to inspire visitors to get the most of their gardens, be it entertaining in an Indian Summer, harvesting tasty produce or extending interest into autumn and winter."

To enter you can buy raffle tickets from the Tourist Information Centre on Market Street, with one ticket costing £2 and three tickets costing £5.

The proceeds will go towards Mayor Deryk Eke’s chosen charities: Saffron Walden Citizen’s Advice and Mind in West Essex.

The competition closes on Thursday, August 22, and winners will be contacted by email on or around August 23.
