TEENAGERS spent a sunny Saturday afternoon making a difference by helping out at the Boaz Project in Sutton Scotney.

The project, when completed, aims to provide work for people with learning difficulties.

At Hill Farm, the group of about 25 people from church youth groups in Winchester fenced the chicken pen, painted the rest room and filled in rabbit holes.

James Mitchell-Innes, one of the trustees, said: "One of the mums asked her son what he enjoyed most of his weekend and he replied 'Working at the Boaz Project'."

The project has been gaining momentum over the past four years and a year ago the project acquired the farm, which was owned by the Salvation Army.
