Did you know that you can buy more than 1,000 Fairtrade products in Ipswich? If you didn’t, perhaps now is the time to lend your support to the campaign to make Ipswich a Faitrade town.
Ipswich Borough Council has declared its support for Fairtrade and now uses Fairtrade products on a daily basis, it is also seeking Fairtrade Town status and has set up a steering group to push this initiative forward and wants to encourage popular support by encouraging you and your organisations to get into the Fairtrade Habit.
Fairtrade Fortnight takes place from 6th to 19th March 2006 and the aim is to increase awareness of Fairtrade and to encourage people to buy Fairtrade products.
