At our February’s club meeting, we were honoured to have Jenny Medhurst who is heavily involved with the Fairtrade Movement. She spoke about the Fairtrade Foundation that aims to improve the lives of some of the world’s poorest farmers by pressuring suppliers to give them a price for their goods closer to that which we pay in the shops.
Also, Jenny brought some tempting Fairtrade goods which were popular amongst the members as they bought them.
