Welcome to the Fairtrade Pages of Christ Church Bedford

In addition to the twice monthly stalls held after the 10am service at Christ Church other items are available to order. I am a stockist of Traidcraft and Leprosy Mission items so if you receive a catalogue and would like to place an order with no postage charges and no minimum order value then please get in touch.

Christ Church has been awarded Fairtrade Certification Status by the fairtrade foundation which shows our commitment to the principles of fairtrade. Please do all you can to support this, by purchasing fairtrade items from the fairtrade stall or some of the other companies mentioned within the fairtrade links. There are lots of handmade gifts available, the purchase of which makes a tremendous difference to individuals and communities in the developing world. Please enquire if you would like further information.

Christ Church is a fairtrade church

We were one of the first churches in the country to get this. Please read the notices around the church to find out how this affects us.

Winning recipe!

One of the recipes using fairtrade ingredients available has just won a fairtrade recipe competition run by Tropical Wholefoods. The fruity pork recipe is available in the fairtrade recipe booklet recently compiled and available on the fairtrade stall.
