Parish Notices Sunday 24th February 2019

The Rector writes ’Tomorrow begins the annual ‘Fairtrade Fortnight’ when thousands of individuals, companies and groups come together to celebrate the people who grow our food, people who live in some of the poorest countries in the world and who are often exploited and badly paid. This year in Ireland we are focusing on the future, where are the future customers coming from? And what will they want to buy?

‘Create Fairtrade’ is a campaign being rolled out to both primary and secondary schools during Fairtrade Fortnight 2019 so young people can have some say now in what kind of future they will create for themselves and the planet. Did you know that, only 9% of Bananas sold in Ireland are Fairtrade, …. what can you do to create a bigger market for farmers and workers? Visit www.fairtrade.ie to find out more.
