Each year at Leeds Festival the Festival Angels Prayer Cafe makes around 50,000 cuppas for festival-goers which means nearly 100,000 biscuits (be honest who ever only takes one biscuit!) Our cafe is a safe and welcome space for thousands of young people and shows that Jesus Loves Festivals.
This year we are asking the local church and community groups to consider becoming Biscuit Angels! The festival is 20-25 August (so need to be in date!) If you have some biscuits to collect please complete the form below or email [email protected] .
If you are near Warrington then We Are Church at Creamfields collects Jammie Dodgers - visit them on Facebook.
Many thanks for becoming Biscuit Angels!
