LUCIA braved the rain to hold a stall at the aptly named Water for Life Festival, as part of BBC Springwatch’s Dirty Weekend campaign.

The festival, held in Cannon Hill Park on Sunday 7th June, aimed to raise awareness of areas of natural beauty as well as practical ways to reduce water consumption and participate in Springwatch’s ‘do one thing for nature'. 

Taking refuge in the Fair-trade tent, the LUCIA stand promoted the ongoing projects the charity supports, signed up some new supporters and sold a range of scarves which were a welcomed extra layer in the morning’s downpour. The volunteers also helped out other exhibitors by indulging in some lovely fair-trade chocolate and jewellery!
