Fair Trade Stall

The Fairtrade Stall is open after the Shopper’s Service on Thursday mornings, 10-12 on Saturday mornings, and after the Morning Service on Sundays. We also provide stock to many other churches and organisations. We stock a wide range of fairly-traded products and new items are always being introduced.

In 2010 Trafford announced that they had achieved Fairtrade Borough status. This recognises the commitment of volunteers who have promoted Fairtrade at events over the past years, the support of local businesses, faith groups and other organisations, and local schools who have Fairtrade School status.

 What does the Fairtrade Mark mean?

• Farmers receive a fair and stable price for their products
• Producer groups receive a premium to invest in improving their communities and businesses
• Greater respect for the environment
• Small farmers have a stronger position in world markets
• A closer link between shoppers and producers.
