Including presentations, social media graphics, print-at-home posters, quizzes, brand new films and much more, there’s lots of materials to help you spread the word this Fairtrade Fortnight.
But from brilliant bunting to perfectly painted posters, some of the best Fairtrade campaign materials we’ve ever seen have been created by dedicated activists like you.
So on Wednesday 15 February at 6:30pm we’re hosting a special Campaign Catch Up to share ideas on how to craft your own Fairtrade Fortnight campaign materials <https://ca.engagingnetworks.app/page/email/click/1904/6263382?email=%2FoQH3Pc8uUYW74CEhSYedNi7SBjRL51PURKQ3UxCEoI=&campid=N48ecobncs0UHgIT5m4sfA==> . It will be suitable for Fairtrade fans of all ages.

Crafting something special could help spread this year’s vital Fairtrade Fortnight message: make the simple switch to Fairtrade to tackle climate change, which is threatening the future of our favourite foods - and the future of communities who grow them.

Whether you create a whole host of home-crafted posters, or just pick up an extra Fairtrade chocolate bar during Fairtrade Fortnight, your support for Fairtrade will be absolutely vital.
Acting together with Fairtrade farmers and workers committed to building a sustainable future for our favourite foods, we can take on the global cost-of-living crisis, the pressures of climate change and an unfair global trade system that has exploited communities in the Global South for centuries.
As Fairtrade Fortnight approaches, thank you for being part of a fairer future.
Best wishes,
Stefan
