Countdown to a #FairtradeChristmas – Day 18

Countdown to a #FairtradeChristmas – Day 18

Who are you?: Charlie Barrow, previously worked at Aberdeen for a Fairer World and now a Trustee.

What is your Fairtrade item?: Biscuits.

Why?: I thought my contribution to the Fairtrade calendar would be a more realistic representation of working with coronavirus restrictions! Not that I eat many biscuits at all! Okay,  I do not eat quite this many biscuits during a Zoom meeting but the ones I do eat are Co-op and therefore FT by default.

In May 2017, the Co-op switched all their own brand products to 100% Fairtrade cocoa. This means any Co-op product with cocoa in it is Fairtrade, even if it doesn’t have the Fairtrade logo.

Today is the last day of the school term. This holiday season, why not have a Fairtrade Quiz? Below is a ready made quiz presentation with answer sheet. Perfect for enjoying after your Christmas meal or on a day when their is nothing you fancy on TV.

This quiz has been adapted from the Fairtrade Foundation. For more questions click the link https://www.fairtrade.org.uk/get-involved/fundraise-for-fairtrade/fairtrade-quiz/
