Events

This Council recognises that FAIRTRADE is tackling poverty by enabling disadvantaged producers from poor countries to receive a better deal, through encouraging support for the FAIRTRADE mark.

We therefore resolve to support FAIRTRADE by

- Serving FAIRTRADE tea & coffee at our meetings & offices

- Encouraging the use of FAIRTRADE products in our town in the local
workplaces & community organisations

- Attracting support for FAIRTRADE in the media & in our own publications

- Supporting the formation of a local steering group to ensure the continued
commitment to obtaining FAIRTRADE TOWN status.

Northampton Borough Council passed this unanimously on
26th April 2004.
