Helpful Info for Fair Trade Groups New resources available! Fair Trade Wales have created some new bilingual factsheets that can be downloaded and printed at home. Click here to visit the resources page or click on the links below to download the factsheets:
Build your own website (easy and free!) Having your own website can really help your Fairtrade campaign, it gives people a place to look for information or a way to contact you if they would like to get involved. There are loads of books, software and websites that offer easy ways to build your own website but I’ve done some research and found that the easiest way to build a really great looking website is at www.moonfruit.com and even better it’s completely free! The following website took two hours to build and you don’t need any expertise or technical knowledge what so ever to do it! Click here to have a look at the tester website that I built... New international Fairtrade Town group forum An exciting new website for Fairtrade Town groups across the world has been launched at www.fairtradetowns.org Not only will the website provide best tools, materials, reports, films and other Fairtrade Town specific information and resources but it will also include an online social networking forum, offering activists and others from around the world a space to share ideas and inspiration.
