Best Fairtrade Town Awards 2009


Deadline for entering Best Fairtrade Town Awards - Ireland !! is 5th August, and the annual Fairtrade Towns conference is October 2nd & 3rd in Dublin. These are great events, and having been to Malawi myself as a result, and experienced what it means to buy Fairtrade at the receiving end, I can't encourage you enough to get involved, do the easy but important thing and see the difference it makes. Excellent materials avaialable at www.fairtrade.ie but lots of the companies who make the products also offer top quality materials, and its all FREE !

And then there's Fairtrade on You Tube...like this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIr_9z6qSyw Hard to understand why we wouldn't buy Fairtrade really !
