The UK celebrates Mother's Day on the 19th March 2023
In this Fairtrade Foundation blog, Flora Hackett explains:
'By choosing a Fairtrade gift this Mother’s Day, you’re supporting Fairtrade farmers and workers – including many mothers – across the world.
Looking for an ethical gift this Mother’s Day?
Buying a Fairtrade gift for your mum supports other mothers too and impacts their wider community, creating opportunities and building hope.
That’s because of the unique way Fairtrade works. As well as better wages and rights at work, Fairtrade provides mothers with the chance to invest in their children’s future. The Fairtrade Premium is an extra amount of money that has been used to fund everything from maternal health clinics and crèches, to clean water and education.
Make another mother’s day. Choose Fairtrade.'
