Fairtrade Fortnight

28 February, 2012

This week and next week, across the country, events are taking place as part of Fairtrade Fortnight.  For more information, go to www.fairtrade.org.uk/step

Can you think of something extra which you can do this year to increase the impact of Fairtrade? – perhaps buying a new Fairtrade product regularly, or telling a friend about Fairtrade, or encouraging your work colleagues to buy Fairtrade, or organising an event?  The aim is for 1.5 million steps nationally in the course of the year – one for every farmer and worker in the Fairtrade system.   It’s by small steps of this kind that Fairtrade has already made an impact on global poverty – and can do more.  Please register your step at:
