Fairtrade events brighten Winchester again

Fairtrade 2020

Winchester has become a city known for a strong celebration of all things fairtrade down the years and 2020 is no different.

The city was awarded fairtrade status back in 2008 and always holds a packed programme of events to mark Fairtrade Fortnight. That began with a friendly coffee morning today at St Lawrence's Church just off The Square in Winchester and local MP Steve Brine popped in for a cuppa on his way to hold his latest constituency surgery.

Steve says; "I have supported the fairtrade team, led so passionately by Rosemary Dunhill, every year I've been the MP and before. They're such a lovely group and always so pleased to see me, often with my children.

"It was super to be able to drop by and have a cup of tea with them as well as pick up some FT biscuits for the constituents to tuck into at my surgery later that morning."

Hampshire Chronicle column - Farewell

Thursday, 30 May, 2024
My final column is perhaps more reflective than usual but I hope you will forgive me as I prepare to formally step down as Parliament is formally Dissolved ahead of the General Election on July 4. Fourteen years ago, in May 2010, I was first elected as our MP.
