We’re calling on you to make a noise about fair trade. We’re asking you to ask your school, uni or college to benefit poor producers by stocking a wide range of fair trade products in the canteen or shop.
TAKE ACTION
Use the downloadable letter below to ask your school or uni/college to stock a wide range of fair trade products. Here’s how to do it, in four simple steps:
-
read and sign the letter
-
if possible, get three other people to read it and sign it
-
put it in an envelope addressed ‘to the catering manager’ or to ‘the shop manager’
-
post it or hand it in at the canteen or shop counter and ask for it to be given to the catering or shop manager - and let us know what happens!
For school students - also photocopy the letter, put it in another envelope addressed to the head teacher and hand it in
at your school office. It is important to do this so that your head teacher knows about the Lift the Label campaign.
