We will be inviting food donations for the Leicester South Foodbank, and taking up a collection for the BMS Harvest Appeal, which this year is supporting outreach
workers in Bangladesh. There's no pressure to give, but if you are able to offer something, it will go to good work.
The service will be followed by some Fairtrade themed activities, including our Fairtrade Bake Off, with prizes awarded for the most popular bake and the bake with the most Fairtrade ingredients.
