[Bassetlug mailing] Fairtrade in Bassetlaw

[Danny Roberts]

I have just had a chance to read the website and ponder the issue between 
meetings and mostly I agree with what martin is saying.

What I propose is that perhaps we could adopt Fairtrade as our recommended 
beverage/refreshment whilst at meetings but make it clear that if you feel 
you want something else then you still have that option. I think this 
would show support for the initiative but wouldn't restrict the concepts 
of independence and freedom that we represent.

Kind Regards

[Bassetlug mailing] Fairtrade in Bassetlaw






Hi BassetLUG,

I've had a letter from the 'Fairtrade for Bassetlaw' steering group
asking if we would supportive of their campaign. We have been approached
as they are asking community groups to support the campaign to get
Bassetlaw designated as a Fairtrade District.

see www.fairtrade.org.uk for more information generally or
www.fairtradeforbassetlaw.org.uk for info about the local initiative. To
suppor them we would, as a minimum need to commit to serve only
fairtrade tea and coffee at our meeting. We are already doing that at
The Crossing, not sure about the new mid week meetings?

I personally would be keen for us to support this campaign.

Comments please.

Regards, Mark
