We have been supporting the Foodbank for over 20 years even before it was under the umbrella of The Trussell Trust.
We have supported Traidcraft for 26 years,which is one of the oldest organisations promoting and selling fair trade goods and crafts. We hope to resume our Traidcraft stall at our Family Services as soon as our supplier has stock. We also use traidcraft produce in our church kitchen. We look forward to the reopening so continuing to support the fight against poverty through fair trade.
