Braintre, Witham and Kelvedon Fairtrade Zone

Welcome
We are a Fairtrade Zone. Braintree District covers Braintree, Witham, Halstead and surrounding areas in Essex.

We have had our Fairtrade Status renewed with some very positive comments. Thank-you everyone.

 

             Look for this mark on Fairtrade products

This site lists the shops and cafes that sell fairtrade products and will keep you up to date with the latest events and news. 

 

 

Thank you to everyone who supported our breakfast. We raised £229, which will be sent to the Haiti appeal. We also sold lots of fairtrade goods and had a great breakfast. Well done to the children of St. Francis School who were excellent, helping with the serving.

Does the firm you work for use fairtrade tea and coffee or would they be willing to start doing so.

Please let us know through the contact page.

 

EVENT NEWS
============
