YOUNG Mathew Parsons, aged seven-years-old, summed up his visit at Eden Chapel’s Narnia exhibition recently as ‘awesome’.

This is a project that started when a wardrobe, used for storage, was being moved through a doorway, and has since developed over the last 18 months, turning into the enchanted world of Eden Chapel that Mathew and others visited.

Working with a ‘zero’ budget and the good will of team Eden, plus friends, donations and loans of props from local businesses, as well as Otterham CP School, has helped raise £145 for chosen appeals, which included the Young at Heart club and purchasing essential items for the children and families displaced in Syria.

A spokesperson for the exhibition said: “We are truly grateful for everyone’s support. Thank you.”
