February Fairtrade Events at Revolver World

February 25th, 2010

Revolver World has been taking part in a number of Fairtrade events to celebrate this year’s Fairtrade Fortnight...

Feb 25th: Aston Uni Fairtrade Marketplace

In advance of the start of year’s Fairtrade Fortnight, Revolver World took part in the Aston University Fairtrade Marketplace today (Thursday 25th February) at the University Guild hall. A range of our apparel was be on sale and we were delighted with the interest shown in our aparel. The event only lasted a couple of hours (from 12pm to 2pm) but it was an excellent taster for those who hadn't considered buying Fairtrade before.

Feb 27th: Fairtrade Fortnight Tea Dance & Fair and Ethical Marketplace

Following this event, Revolver was at the Strictly Fairtrade Tea dance on Saturday the 27th of February in Victoria Square, Birmingham. The Tea Dance events, held nationwide, looked to celebrate Fairtrade Fortnight with a dance of any sort. Anything from street dancing to the salsa was welcome, and the rain didn't stop many people from enjoying themselves!. Along with the tea (strictly Fairtrade of course) a variety of artists and groups performed on stage at the Birmingham event - furthermore, Revolver hosted a stand in the accompanying Fair and Ethical Market, alongside eco-powered home solutions, bags, jewellery and produce.

We sold a range of apparel, including a couple of new designs of our own AND the official Birmingham Fairtrade Campaign T-Shirt (Stamping Out Unethical Trade), at our stall - thanks to all who supported us and bagged one of our organic Fairtrade T-Shirts or Hoodies!

Fairtrade Fortnight begins with the Big Swap! Harriet Lamb executive director of the Fairtrade Foundation discusses her vision for Fairtrade Fortnight

February 23rd, 2010

Revolver World attended the launch of The Big Swap 2010 last night in London - were you there? (We gave away loads of T-Shirts...)

With Fairtrade Fortnight now fully underway, we're going to be gearing up our activities over the next couple of weeks, including taking part in Birmingham's weekend of Fairtrade celebrations and promotion in Birmingham city centre on the weekend of the 27th of February (more on that coming soon). In the meantime, to whet your appetite, here's an interview with Harriet Lamb from Ethical.TV, where she discusses her work as director of the Fairtrade Foundation and her passions and interests outside of work.

In this interview she talks openly about how the Fairtrade movement has developed and the impact Fairtrade has had on communities in developing countries across the world and how individuals all have a part to play.
