Fair Trade


Welcome to Fair Trade - one of our "Food Issues" info pages (see menu to the right for other topics).

These Food Issues pages are designed to give you a little food for thought about some of the issues involved with sustainable eating.

Think of these pages as a taster for each issue:
just some brief info to introduce the concept and whet your appetite.

After sampling each issue, you may like to move onto the next "taster" or sink your teeth into some more substantial fare by using the links on each page.

To us, Fair Trade is about ensuring that the people who produce the products we enjoy, get a fair go. That means safe working conditions, freedom from exploitation and a living wage.

Oxfam has more information if you'd like to learn more.
