On 20th January 2006, in front of an enthusiastic audience, Director of the Fairtrade Foundation, Harriet Lamb, presented Town Mayor Councillor Mark Freeman with a certificate conferring Fairtrade Town status on Leighton-Linslade.
We are Bedfordshire's first Fairtrade Town!
In order to qualify for Fair Trade Town status, we had to complete five separate goals. These are explained HERE on this website, and other sections will tell you how we continue to satisfy them.
If you feel inspired to get involved with our organisation, or can help in any way, we would be delighted to hear from you- see the relevant section. If not, but would like to support Fair Trade in other ways, the same section has ideas. These are for the home, workplace, where you shop…
We also have a section detailing why buying Fair Trade matters, another with useful links, and a random section for…well…random stuff. It could be a recipe, a newsletter, or the steering committee singing the Banana Song.
We would like to thank GS Studios for their support both in setting up this website initially, and in enabling us to keep it running. We can thoroughly recommend their website services- contact us for more details.
