Two Oxfordshire MPs and the Bishop of Oxford, the Rt Rev Richard Harries, will be supporting the Oxfordshire Adopt-a-Minefield appeal run by the West Oxfordshire branch of the United Nations Association.
On Thursday, Bishop Richard will present a cheque for £12,500 to the director of the United Nations Association Malcolm Harper, who lives in Charlbury
The money will mean a section of a massive minefield in central Mozambique can be cleared by the United Nations and the Mozambiquan mine action programme.
The presentation will take place in the Old Library at the University Church of St Mary the Virgin in High Street, Oxford, where Oxfam was founded in 1942. Mr Harper worked for Oxfam for 18 years.
On Sunday, Witney MP David Cameron and Banbury MP Tony Baldry will help release around 1,700 balloons in a balloon race at Heath Farm, Swerford.
