A GROUP of Harlow humanitarians left the town on Saturday morning as they took clothing to Calais in France.

The group from across the political spectrum and representing a variety of faith and ethnic groups left the Harlow Playhouse in a number of mini-buses loaded with provisions for refugees in Calais.

YT met the group as they head off. A member of the group, Adam Cochrane, made an impassioned speech before they left.
