You will probably know that thousands of Bengalis now live in the UK and have made a huge contribution to our economy. And that Bangladeshi curry has become one of the UK’s favourite foods! But did you know that the Sundarbans in southern Bangladesh, which is home to the endangered Royal Bengali Tiger, is the largest single block of mangrove forest in the world?

The Postgate Society exists to foster devotion in general and at all times to Fr Postgate and to the rest of the English Martyrs, those who have been made saints, those who have been declared blessed and those whose cases have been deferred until further evidence can be obtained.
