Fair Trade is about giving poor people power: by paying producers a fair price for their work, helping them gain the skills and knowledge they need to develop their businesses, and challenging ways of trading which keep people poor. Fair Trade means that many of the people who rely on selling crafts and textiles for a living, or who produce food items such as tea, coffee, honey and chocolate, now have the chance to work their way out of poverty.

The supermarkets are now stocking more and more Fair Trade items, including coffee, tea, chocolate, bananas, geobars. Keep your eyes peeled for other items! Also look at buying items locally at Farmers Markets (Hampshire) or through Organic Doorstop Delivery Schemes, including:
