10:30am - 3:30pm
Stockport College
Wellington Road
Stockport
SK1 3UQ
The group was formed in 2001, with a few of the founder members having worked in the Fairtrade Shop in Stockport. Over the next 2 years, members worked with Stockport Council, encouraging businesses to sell fairtrade products, resulting in Stockport becoming a fairtrade borough in 2003.
The annual Fair allows fairtrade companies a platform to showcase their products to the public in Stockport, whilst raising awareness of how Fairtrade works and who benefits from the products.
There will be over 25 stalls this year, and campaign stalls including Oxfam and Friends of the Earth.
There will be children’s activities, a raffle of fairtrade prizes and fairtrade refreshments.
Held at Stockport College, there is free parking and disabled access.
