Fairtrade Fortnight is here

March 5, 2021

It’s that time of year again where we take time to stop and think about our planet and its people and how we can bring about a positive change, even the tiniest of ways can help.

The theme this year is Choose the World You Want and this highlights the growing challenges that climate change brings to farmers and workers in some of the poorest communities in the world. It is more important than ever to support Fairtrade and play our part in creating a fairer, more sustainable world.  Buy Fairtrade
