It is with pleasure that we announce our winner… @supersel1, your hamper should be safely with you now. Congratulations – we hope you love your Fairtrade goodies!
This Ramadan, Zaytoun invites you to break your fast with their ethicallysourced Medjoul dates from Palestine, to show solidarity with Palestinian farming communities. Fair trade provides a vital source of income for growers in the Jordan Valley whose livelihood and land are under daily threat from the occupation and expanding illegal settlements.

Dear Fairtrader,
Jo here, with Matt away from the business I just wanted to reach out to offer you some reassurances it’s business as normal as we head into the Easter period. As always, your support is always appreciated and it may even be you are starting to see activity and events come back to live in your local community. The team are working as long as possible to make sure we get your Easter goodies out to you in sufficient time, so now seems a good opportunity to remind you our last day for guaranteed despatch is Monday 11th April! Our thoughts are with Matt for a speedy return, and we wish him and you a peaceful Easter. As Matt would say, happy fair trading! Jo
