The ideals of Fairtrade have been gathering strength over the past few years with some big commercial names signing up and some towns going Fairtrade, although organisations have been working for some thirty years with a mission to fight World poverty through trade; self-help methods that help poor people in developing countries to transform their lives.
The Parochial Church Council adopted the Fairtrade Pledge and we have been a Fairtrade church for nearly five years. Traidcraft is a Christian organisation founded in 1979 selling, at first tea and coffee, now expanding into many other types of foodstuffs, clothes, decorative items, etc. You may want to take a look at the web site and remember that we are supporting a fairer World.
