Did you know today was World Fair Trade Day? This year’s theme is ‘Kids need Fair Trade’, the logic being that if adults are paid a fair price for their work, their children are able to go to school and live a healthy and full life, rather than having to work. 

Activities related to World Fair Trade Day will take place throughout May so find out how you can get involved here.

It would also seem an appropriate moment to cast our minds back to our Fairtrade Fortnight Ethical Weddings Challenge.  Maybe it will give you some ideas for your wedding, or maybe you know some great fair trade wedding suppliers we missed, if so please tell us about them!

And while we’re at it, let’s celebrate World Fair Trade Day with flowers – fair trade fabric flowers, to be precise, by the innovative utani-uk.  If you want a bouquet that’s going to last longer than a day, and make a difference at the same time, why not get in touch with Joy at utani-uk and see what she can do for you.  She could even make your dress too!
