Long Melford Long Melford Bag

HELPING THE ENVIRONMENT, PROMOTING THE VILLAGE !

You will probably notice that Long Melford has its own attractive re-usable bag on sale for just £1.50.

The Long Melford Bag has been organised by the Long Melford Business Association (LMBA) and is green, not just in colour, but also as it aims to help users cut down on their plastic bag consumption.  Made from recycled materials and with a distinctive image of the village on each side (realised by the artist Gordon Parkinson from Trinity Gallery, Long Melford), as well as with a reminder of the new Village Website address, it makes for a more stylish and appealing bag than many of those currently available.

All profits from the bag goes to support local good causes and this year’s funds will go to the ‘Friends of the Group’ who are raising money for the rebuild of the Long Melford Scout Hut.  (£350 so far)
