St Mary Church Shortlands has been a Fair Trade Church for some years. This means that wherever possible we provide fairly traded refreshments, we support Fair Trade Fortnight and have a regular stall selling fairly traded goods.
Thousands of farmers and small producers are having their lives lifted out of poverty by Fair Trade by being paid a fair price for their produce, helping to raise living standards, feeding their families, educating their children, and improving their communities using the premium paid on top of the price for their goods.
If you wish to make an order from Fairtrade, please contact Cecilia Willatt on 020 8313 0246.
