A CHANCE to see, hold and learn about owls - and raise money for Nuneham Courtenay village hall as well - is being given today.

Between 2pm and 6pm today, people going to the village hall will find themselves In The Company of Owls.

Tickets, priced £3, are available by calling 01865 343260. Under-16s pay £2, under-twos get in free.

Adults and children alike will be able to meet the birds face to face and hear an expert on the care and natural history of owls.

Refreshments will be available and if the weather is good there will be a barbecue.
