Two of our Fairtrade champions

A big thank you to everyone who came to the Fair Trade Big Brew at Thackley Methodist Church on 28th February. It was lovely to see so many people there from different churches in the Circuit. We took £316.35 in sales of fair trade goods. We also raised £75.57 by asking for donations for the refreshments and this money has been sent to Traidcraft Exchange for their Fair Necessities Appeal, which means that the money will be doubled by the UK government and used to improve the lives of smallholder farmers in the developing world.

A special thank you to Thackley for hosting our event and to all who helped on the day. Thank you!

Protect those who love you;     because of you they are truly happy ...
