Melton Easter Bare Tree Hope Festival will celebrate the Resurrection

A unique Bare Tree Hope Festival will be held in Melton’s St Mary’s Church for the first time over the Easter period.

The aim of the event is to celebrate the Resurrection with hope and renewal. It will feature trees made by volunteers that have the themes of prayer, conservation, abolition of modern-day slavery, sustainable food production, charity, plastic pollution and new life.
