We have had several shop window displays during Fairtrade Fortnight, many thanks to Yates and Hoppers for using our books and materials in their displays. Beecham Weigh had a selection of Clipper flags and food items in their windows.

Malton Library had two displays, one in the main library and one in the Children’s section

The Fairtrade and Local Craft Fair was a huge success. Over £600 of Fair Trade goods were sold by our stall, Black Yak and Rickshaw. Nine local Craftspeople were able to sell and showcase their work and the Soroptomists were able to explain their vision.
