In your Workplace

Are you passionate about fair trade and think your colleagues should be too?  A great place to get involved with fair trade is at your place of work.  There are many different ways you can spread the word about the fair trade movement and inspire others with some fantastic Fairtrade Certified products and fair trade gifts.  

Start your working day with a cup of Fairtrade tea and you and your colleagues could be helping tea estate workers in Uganda build a new clinic, vital for the health of their community.

Here are some ideas to get you started: organise a Fairtrade morning tea, host a coffee cupping course (contact a local Fairtrade coffee roaster to find out more) hold a Fair Trade Fortnight event and become recognised as a Fair Trade Workplace.
