Go on, get a lovely glow going in your guardian-reading heart and get down to the fairtrade fair in Balham tonight. Mulled wine & cakes (yay), free ethical investment advice (er, yay?), a multimedia spectacular combo of film, music & raffle, and of course gazillions of fairtrade doodads to buy for your loved ones and not the slightest whiff of a sweatshop anywhere near any of it! That’s what we call Christmas spirit!
The fair is run by the good people of WDM and starts at 7 in the church at 21 Ramsden Rd.
North London people who can’t bear to cross the river – there’s a great year round fairtrade shop in Manchester.
