Go Further for Fairtrade in 2013

In 2013 the Fairtrade Foundation is asking everyone to Go Further for Fairtrade. It can be as simple as trying a Fairtrade product you haven’t tasted before, and making it a permanent part of your weekly shop, to talking part in a crafty event, to asking someone in your local area to switch to Fairtrade.
For the campaign for Wycombe to be a Fairtrade Town, it is doubling and trebling our effort to secure WDC agreement to explicitly says they support Wycombe becoming a Fairtrade Town and thus remove their 4 year road-block to its achievement.

Fairtrade Town bid relaunched

The Wycombe for Fairtrade group has recently relaunched its campaign to see High Wycombe become a Fairtrade Town. They are beginning to re-engage with local businesses, schools and places of worship and are gathering support in order to demonstrate to Wycombe District Council that Fairtrade is something that has wide support across Wycombe. Please do your part by signing the petition on the Wycombe District Council website.
