Faitrade fortnight is with us. So while you are shuffling down the aisles of your local supermarket or whizing round your corner shop spare a thought for the producers in the the developing world and buy fairtrade! Faritrade Coffee, Tea, Chocolate, Flowers, Honey, Cereals, Bananas, Sugar, Dried fruit, Wine, Beer, Cosmetics and even Footoballs. In fact there are 1,300 Fairtrade certified products in the UK for you to choose from.
Then when you have tried out as many fairtrade goodies as you can in two weeks buy them all year round! Its one way you can really make the difference in the developing world. It will cost you a little more, BUT the difference it will make will be amazing and don't forget you get the feel good factor thrown in for free!
Here are some more suggestions from the Fairtrade Foundation & Oxfam.
