About this pod
We are a very active pod, have been formed since 2008,/2010 and have about 20 members. We are very
excited at the moment as we have just been awarded the
he King's Award for Voluntary Service, equivalent of an
M.B.E. We feel it is a recognition of all the Morsbags
pods worldwide and all we do for the environment.
We meet on the third Monday of every month. Our meetings are at the Catholic Church Hall in Market Harborough from 1pm to 3pm. We are busy supplying bags to local independent businesses, charities and anywhere that supports reducing plastic in the environment. We
have stalls at local events where we give out bags and help spread the Morsbag message.
Come and join our friendly group, and help us make Morsbags! We have made over 40,000 bags. We are a friendly group.
We have members who collect fabric for us, others who cut bags, more that sew, some who love to label and others who give the bags away.
'Pressing Appointments" on Coventry Road in Market Harborough is one of the local businesses who have supported us over the years. We usually have a window display all about Morsbags. The Village on St. Mary's Road has our bags and collects fabric donations for us. Fabric donations can also be dropped off at the Council Offices in Symingtons Building on Adam and Eve Street or Craft-i- Trims in the Indoor market. Or you can contact us via Morsbags.com or our Facebook page and we can arrange local collections.

We started in 2008 as "Harborough HIT Bags Morsbags Pod" and in 2019 we renamed ourselves as Harborough Morsbags.
