Global Justice Leicester and the Knighton Justice Group celebrated Fairtrade Fortnight on Uppingham road in Leicester.
Passers by were offered Fairtrade chocolate that had been donated by the Narborough Rd Co Op. We would like to thank them for their support. They gave us a warm welcome and provided leaflets so that customers could see the range of Fairtrade products that were available in the store.
Narborough Rd is busy on Saturday morning and many shoppers stopped for a chat. It was encouraging to meet so many young people who had taken part in special events in their schools and colleges for Fairtrade Fortnight.
Fairtrade Fortnight is a powerful reminder to all of us that the simple act of choosing to buy a Fairtrade product, literally changes lives.
