Vishwaraj, our Fairtrade-licensed factory manager, and Andy recently combined with the Montgomery Development Education Centre and one of our major corporate clients, North Link Ferries, to conduct a schools seminar on Fairtrade cotton aboard North Link’s HV Hjatland on 4 October in Aberdeen sport harbour. It was a really successful and innovative event, but unfortunately none of us managed to become stowaways and make the journey to the beautiful Northern Isles!!
One of our star client schools in Aberdeenshire, Fyvie Primary, gave a terrific presentation during the event on what embracing Fairtrade school uniform meant to their school, as described in Aberdeenshire’s Turriff Advertiser news article.
