On-line help to find Fairtrade goods

Church of England curate, the Revd Simon Butler, was so frustrated by trying to find fairly traded goods and retailers that he has launched an on-line free searchable database of ethically-trading retailers and wholesalers.

Mr Butler says: ‘As someone who is keen to buy fairly traded goods whenever I can, it frustrated me that it was so often difficult to track down appropriate shops and products.’

www.tradingfairly.co.uk helps likeminded shoppers with a simple search facility, to view relevant retailers across the UK by geographical location, product lines or other criterior.

Mr Butler will also supply churches with posters and postcards to promote the site. Email Simon or call 07803 909284.
