Today as part of the Calne Summer Festival week, JBS Best went along to the Community Cycle Event held at Calne Leisure Centre. We went along to support Calne Fairtrade Group,
A recently formed group which is supported by the Town Council and The Community Area Partnership. There are already nine towns in Wiltshire that have achieved their Fairtrade status. To achieve this status Calne will have to show that we have local outlets providing and using Fairtrade products. Raising Awarness for local business, schools and local organisations, and to encourage them to use Fairtrade products.
We spoke to over 40 individuals today, who signed our questionnaire, which asked if they used fairtrade products at home and every person we spoke to did. Out of those only 8 of them knowingly used Fairtrade products at work.
