We know the value of supporting fair trade here at Myakka and to celebrate World Fair Trade Day we have teamed up with some of our non- furniture friends to offer you the chance to win everything you need for a delicious fair trade breakfast. This year World Fair Trade Day will take place on May 12th and we’re all being asked to register our breakfasts as part of the Take A Step campaign, launched earlier this year during Fairtrade Fortnight. The aim is to get the UK to take 1.5 million steps for Fairtrade by the end of 2012. Already more than 545,000 steps have been taken, but we still have a million more to go with each one taking us closer to the better deal from global trade that millions more farmers and workers so urgently need. Register your Fair Trade breakfast and make your ‘step’ count!
