Tackling rural issues

I'm pleased to hear that a charity I've heard great things about, The Gilead Foundation, has been awarded £90,000 for its rehabilitation centre in Devon.

Gilead provides training at an organic farm near Okehampton for those struggling with a range of issues, including homelessness.

It's won the cash in the Spark social enterprise competition - a £1.5m project launched in December 2007.
