Fairtrade

Our congregation has been a Fairtrade Church for many years but in 2020 we renewed our commitment and received this certificate.

This means that we commit to:

1. use Fairtrade products wherever possible (at least tea, coffee & sugar) and to share this information with the wider congregation.

2. integrate Fairtrade into the life of our place of worship, at Fairtrade Fortnight or other times of the year through other activities, sermons and services.

 

27 February - 12 March 2023

Fairtrade Fortnight is going ahead as usual. All support is much appreciated.

CHOOSE THE WORLD YOU WANT - Climate, Fairtrade and You. What Has Fairtrade got to do with tackling the climate crisis? Read more from individuals and churches (including our own Fairtrade Team) who are already involved.  It also presents challenging and informative information about how we can all contribute and support.

 

April 2021 saw some of our Supporters of Traidcraft Exchange take on the challenge of trekking to Santiago - from home! They took up the challenge of walking 100km in April in support of the charity’s ‘The Regenerators Appeal’, raising £2169 which was doubled by the Government. This will help small producers in the developing world meet the challenges of climate change.

Congratulations ladies!
