Seven million sunflowers raise money for Kidney Research

Mid-morning on BBC Radio Somerset

Available for over a year

Thousands of windowsils around Somerset are adorned with sunflowers today and they've all been picked from Thurloxton Farm, in return for a donation to charity. They've been raising money for Kidney Research UK. Faye Venner's son Joshua had a kidney transplant when he was just 8 years old. That was 6 years ago, and he'll need another one in 10 to 15 years time. On our Mid Morning Show, Faye had a chat with our Presenter Simon Parkin.
