ANGLIA FARMERS TAKES HOLY ORDERS

Anglia Farmers Ltd the Norfolk based requisite buying group with purchasing power in excess of £100million/year (through which we buy most of what we need to run this farm) has entered into an agreement to supply the Diocese of Norwich with a variety of items.
Negotiations began when the Bishop of Norwich, who was president of the Royal Norfolk Show last year, visited the Anglia Farmers stand at the June show. Since then nearly fifty sub accounts have been established through which individual churches and clergy can place orders.
Purchases so far have included a new bunded oil tank for St Peters Church, Blofield, together with heating oil to fill it and electricity for St Mary's Church, Happisburgh. Ray Sanders of St Mary's said "It's early days but it looks like we'll save £100/year and that's the equivalent of several coffee mornings".

Thanks for this. I have asked whether our diocese should be doing something similar - Rural Adviser to the Bishop of Southwell and Nottingham.
