Local charity, Habitats and Heritage, is hosting a fundraising event with patron Axel Scheffler.

Christmas Tales with Axel Scheffler will be happening on Saturday 25th November at 9.30 am or 12pm at St Stephen's Church in Twickenham.

Habitats and Heritage is a small environmental charity, based in East Twickenham, which cares for the natural and historic environment and climate in south and west London.

Axel will be reading his much loved books, which he created with Julia Donaldson, including The Gruffalo's Child, Stick Man and The Baddies.

Axel will also be drawing some of his most famous characters.

All of these drawings will then be auctioned after the event.

These events will be followed by book signing. 

Tickets are £14 (plus £0.85 booking fee).
