Established in March 2003, the group consists of an enthusiastic group of
active volunteers who have achieved the five goals specified by
the Fairtrade foundation
to achieve Fairtrade borough status for Ealing. The group includes representatives
from local businesses, schools, community groups, faith groups and Ealing
residents.
Join us to help promote Fairtrade in Ealing and gain volunteering experience along the way – we are a friendly group and always welcome new members.
You can also help by joining the much larger network of supporters who promote Fairtrade in their workplaces, schools or places of worship, or support the campaign by buying Fairtrade goods and asking shops and cafes to stock them.
Fairtrade wine, chocolate & cola tasting evening photos
On 25th September 2008 we held a Fairtrade wine, chocolate and cola tasting evening at Ealing town hall, with guest speakers from the Co-op, Ubuntu cola and La Riojana Fairtrade winery, Argentina. The evening was organised by Brian Walmsley of Fair Trade Gifts, who also supplied the attractive glasses we sampled the Fairtrade wines with. See Brian's website at www fairgift.co.uk for a range of beautiful, fairly traded gifts.
A speech was also given by the Mayor of Ealing, Councillor Ian Green, who supports the Fairtrade cause. Much fun and merriment was had by all as we sampled delicious and excellent value Fairtrade products.
Please help support Fairtrade by buying Fairtrade products and joining Ealing Fairtrade Group.
