Fairtrade - a thank you

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported the Festive Fairtrade Fair at BoltonMethodist Church on 22^nd November. We made £549.40 in Fairtrade sales and took £52.15 in donations for Traidcraft Exchange.

The next event planned is a Fairtrade Big Brew to take place on Saturday 28^th February in the morning at Thackley Methodist Church. This will coincide with Fairtrade Fortnight, which takes place from 23^rd February to 8^th March. The message for the 2015 campaign will be, “Choose Products that Change Lives” – to celebrate the power of everyday choices by telling the other half of a product’s story – the producer’s – to show the difference Fairtrade makes. This is a difference that I saw first-hand on my recent trip to Ghana, where I met cocoa farmers, palm oil producers and banana farmers. Fairtrade really does make a difference!

Trinity Methodist Watchnight Service

Trinity Methodist Church on Lilycroft Road, Bradford held their annual Watchnight service at 11.30 on New Year’s E ve, led by Rev. Albert Gayle, minister of the Church. These services (as in past years) are of an ecumenical nature and we are able to welcome folks from other local churches in the area and not purely from the Methodist persuasion. Following the service, fireworks and refreshments were enjoyed by all. A lovely way to celebrate both the end of the old and the beginning of the new year. Ian B Trinity
