We are very fortunate to have a committed group of parents who attend our “Better Together Group” every Friday Morning. Together the parents and carers, create fantastic items which they sell at events throughout the year. Today, our Better Together Group, served Fairtrade tea/coffee and biscuits to our service users.
What is Fairtrade?
Fairtrade is about better prices, decent working conditions and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers.
When you buy products with the FAIRTRADE Mark, you support farmers and workers as they work to improve their lives and their communities. The Mark means that the Fairtrade ingredients in the product have been produced by small-scale farmer organisations or plantations that meet Fairtrade social, economic and environmental standards. The standards include protection of workers’ rights and the environment, payment of the Fairtrade Minimum Price and an additional Fairtrade Premium to invest in business or community projects.
