Now is the perfect time of year to get people together for a summer event! Could you help CRESS fundraise by arranging cream teas in your community or having a stall at a larger event? If you can, get in touch, we look forward to hearing your ideas!

Keeping you up-to-date with the work of CRESS. Our May update about our agriculture project which is now so important as food distribution is being stopped for all refugees, they will be more reliant than ever on their abilities to grow their own food.
