Fairtrade School T Shirts

Happy Fairtrade families

Well we have our thinking caps on here at Cotton Roots.  We have stock in five different colours of our Fairtrade and organic cotton T shirts in adult sizes – extra small – 2xl.  But we are thinking “Why not stock childrens sizes as well”?  It seems like a good idea but are there schools who would like them for part of their uniform? A Fairtrade School uniform.  Helen is investigating.  We are planning to ask headteachers of schools who are already Fairtrade  to see if they would be interested.  If you have any comments, thoughts, or suggestions please leave a comment for us.  All ideas gratefully received!

Fairtrade Fortnight Milton Keynes

Fairtrade Clothing

Our local city Milton Keynes has a very pro-active Fairtrade group and they have organised many events for the Fairtrade Fortnight. See http://www.mkfairtrade.org.uk/page.cfm. Our intrepid Helen is launching her EyetoEye Fairtrade Food stall at Wolverton market this week. So fingers crossed it is a roaring success. The group also have a stall at the Stony Stratford Beer Festival – with Fairtrade wines and beers.
