We understand that not everyone can make it to Edinburgh on the day and so this year, we are delighted to announce a brand new initiative – Heart & Soul Live and Local. From 1:30pm until the end of worship (around 5:45pm) we will be broadcasting a live, hosted programme live from the Gardens. A team of presenters will bring the very best of Heart and Soul directly into your home or church hall. We would love people to gather with friends and watch together, or simply spend some time on their own watching and taking part in the event. You will be able to join Heart & Soul Live and Local at www.heartandsoul.org.uk.
