Ark Cafe at Marlow Methodist Church
10.00am. to 12.00 noon. Saturday 4th October 2025
This was Wycombe For Fairtrade’s first visit to Marlow as part of our wider outreach plans. We sold a range of Fairtrade certified products as well as Christmas cards while encouraging people to sign a partition about prompting large UK Tea companies to sell more Fairtrade certified tea to benefit small-scale producers in the Global South.
The most popular products were the Traidcraft Christmas cards and the tropical fruit jams. Sales at this event totaled over £160.00. The Treasurer managed to successfully utilize our new SumUp card reader to record card transactions.
Sunnybank Methodist Church, Downley, High Wycombe

Sheena, Lesley, and Mike spent an interesting afternoon at Sunnybank church, setting up a Fairtrade product stall and displaying Fairtrade information and posters, both before and after their scheduled film show in the afternoon.
Fairtrade Christmas cards were a popular choice in what was a well-supported event. We enjoyed the very emotional and excellent film version of “Les Misérables”. We raised £125.55 at this event in a very welcoming atmosphere.
