Fairtrade

We are advocates of Fairtrade values and support this both internally and externally. What we mean by that is internally, as a business, we make Fairtrade purchasing choices. Our coffee, tea, chocolate and sugar in the office all bear the Fairtrade Mark. The t-shirts we provide all students who travel with us are printed on Fairtrade cotton. Externally, we work hard to raise awareness of Fairtrade across schools in the UK.

Interested in becoming a Fairtrade School? Organise a Fairtrade School Trip with us and we'll help you become a Fairtrade School.
