Last Tuesday we held a Tea party to support fair trade fortnight and showed off our label. Fair Trade fortnight is an annual event organised by the fair trade foundation. This year the theme is show off your label which we did with fair trade T-shirts balloons, bunting and of course all the essential foods for a tea party including lots of cake!

We had a great selection of cakes made using fair trade ingredients including coffee, chocolate, lemon, banana and ginger. We also had a great selection of fair trade fruits and nuts and the essential tea, coffee and hot chocolate. The whole team got involved in making the cakes and taking some time out to enjoy the culinary masterpieces.

Of course all this is for a great cause – promoting the importance of fair trade. The whole fortnight aim is to promote how fair trade improves the lives of thousands of people and communities around the world.
