In May Festive launched its 2016 free give away campaign, with the prayer that even more sixth formers will pass on copies of the evangelistic survival manual Beyond Beans On Toast this summer.
Last year, students and chaplains ordered bundles to distribute at a variety of creative events. Through leavers’ BBQs, CU parties and ‘results day’ stalls, an incredible 1,000 sponsored copies were put into the hands of students at 30 colleges and sixth forms across the UK!
