As a passionate fairtrade campaigner and advocate I felt compelled to join the Fairtrade Fortnight 2024 webinar.
2024 will be 30 years of Fair trade in the United Kingdom.
This webinar was organised by the Fairtrade Foundation UK team.
I have attached photographs of the webinar below for those interested.

In 2024, we'll be celebrating 30 years of the Faritrade mark here in the UK.
This means 30 years of farmers using the power of Fairtrade to drive positive change in their communities.
Instead of waiting until September 2024, we've put together 30 ways you can get the ball rolling. How many can you finish before Fairtrade Fortnight 2024?

Fairtrade Fortnight 2024
Our next Fairtrade Fortnight will be
Monday 9th September - Sunday 22 September 2024
Frequently Asked Questions
Is moving Fairtrade Fortnight to September a permanent move or will it be going back to its normal slot 2025?
We want to make the move to September a permanent change from 2024, so that going forward, we can create consistency for everyone involved.
When will the theme be communicated?
We're already working on this, and we'll let you have an update soon!
We had already planned some action for the old Fairtrade dates, can we continue with our plans?
Yes, we want this transition to be as easy as possible for everyone: moving forward we would like all schools to take Fairtrade action to fit in with their own calendars and needs.

My sister sent me links to webinars about Great Mental Health Day which took place 26th January 2024.
I am grateful to all the guest speakers and trainers who took time out of their busy schedules to talk about Suicide Prevention, Bereavement and Write to Speak Your Poetry.

میری بہن نے مجھے عظیم دماغی صحت کے دن کے بارے میں ویبینرز کے لنکس بھیجے جو 26 جنوری 2024 کو ہوا تھا۔
میں ان تمام مہمان مقررین اور ٹرینرز کا مشکور ہوں جنہوں نے اپنے مصروف شیڈول میں سے وقت نکال کر خودکشی کی روک تھام، سوگ اور اپنی شاعری لکھنے کے بارے میں بات کی۔
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to all my fair trade friends and family around the world.
