Fairtrade
We are a Fairtrade Church, one of many who promote ethical consumption and support producers in developing countries. We are committed to using only Fairtrade coffee, tea and sugar for all church organisations and events. Go to www.fairtrade.org.uk to find out more about the Fairtrade Foundation.
Wardie is a Fairtrade Church; Edinburgh is a Fairtrade City; Scotland is a Fairtrade Nation! Recognising the value of fair trade is contributing to justice and equality for all.
