Hot cross buns bring smiles to Birstall Shoppers

Volunteers from churches in nearby Gildersome won many friends among shoppers at Birstall Shopping Park when they joined forces on Good Friday to hand out hot cross buns.
 
The churches, Baptist, Greenside Methodist and St Peters, were keen to spread the Easter message on the busy and popular Park, and the tasty buns proved very effective. Over 1000 shoppers enjoyed an unexpected but very pleasurable extension to their breakfast.
 
“We will make this an annual event,” said organiser Marge Oldfield, adding: “We enjoyed bringing so many smiles to the faces of so many people at this special time of the year.”
