NOTICES

We are FAB!!!  (Fairtrade Association Biggleswade)  -  a group of people who want to see more people buying Fairtrade products and for Biggleswade to become a Fairtrade Town.

What is the point of buying Fairtrade? - When you buy a product carrying the Fairtrade logo , you know that producers in the developing world receive a fair and stable price for their produce, which covers their production costs and includes a premium to be reinvested either in the business or in social and environmental schemes among the community.  

 

What is the point of Biggleswade becoming a Fairtrade Town?

• In a Fairtrade Town people know about Fairtrade issues and make informed choices about what they buy.
• In a Fairtrade Town there are shops/cafés selling Fairtrade products so people are able to buy Fairtrade.
