Hello, my name is Becks, but for two weeks I've transformed into the magnificent Fairtrade Woman! I'm eating nothing but Fairtrade food for 14 whole days (25 February - 9 March 2008) to raise awareness of Fairtrade Fortnight which takes place every year.
In real life I work for Oxfam. This the second year in a row that I'm eating only Fairtrade as I want to show how many Fairtrade products there are available.
Last year it was fantastic to see there was a lot more Fairtrade stuff than I thought there was (and for that matter there's even more available now thanks to people like you buying Fairtrade!)
But shops could do better. They could stock a lot more Fairtrade if they wanted to.
That's why this year I want you to doing something for Fairtrade Fortnight too. It would put a huge smile on my face if you could do one of the 3 easy things I've come up with to help spread the word about Fairtrade - as demonstrated in the video of my lovely Fairtrade Angels. (you can even win some Fairtrade goodies in the process)
