It's #WorldFairTradeDay!
More than ever we need to build #PlanetFairTrade by supporting #FairTradeSolidarity.
So, today, in your one allowed socially distanced visit to the shops, make sure you support Developing World farmers by buying Fairtrade!

This lunchtime I (virtually) attended the first of the new monthly @FairtradeUK National Campaigner Committee meetings.
I represent #Fairtrade campaigners across the #EastMidlands on the NCC.

Over on Facebook I'm reminded of this pic, from seven years ago, of me with itv central weatherman @DesColeman, then a reporter with @politicseastmid, who came to #Hinckley to do a report on our work locally to promote #Fairtrade.
Quiz question: What TV soap did he used to be in?

ALERT: The launch of our exciting programme of #LGBT+ events in #Hinckley and #Bosworth for 2020 is underway!

This morning-via phone-I took part in the first @FairtradeUK National Campaigner Committee meeting of 2019.
I represent #Fairtrade campaigners across the #EastMidlands on the committee.
It was a busy agenda, including exciting plans for #FairtradeFortnight!

[E.Midlands Fairtrade @EastMidsFTNCC]

A great article-in the @hinckandbos_bc (#Leicestershire) Borough Bulletin-promoting #Fairtrade products.
There's still time to get your loved ones a #Christmas present 📦 which is not only a wonderful gift, but also an ethical one.

This morning I chaired the latest meeting of the #Hinckley and #Bosworth #Fairtrade Forum (@LE10Fairtrade.)
A very positive and productive meeting; including early planning for #FairtradeFortnight 2019! (Cc @FairtradeUK)

[E.Midlands Fairtrade @EastMidsFTNCC]

NEW!: #Fairtrade campaigners in #Loughborough are busy preparing for their Fair Trade Fayre which takes place a week on Saturday, at the Baptist Church.
It's set to be a fantastic occasion, with a range of quality goods available to purchase.
A great pre-#Christmas occasion!
