Hold a Big Brew and join people
across the UK to bring about positive
change in the lives of thousands of
producers in the developing world.
In the UK we can only produce 12% of
the honey we love to eat. Think of the
difference we would make if all the
honey we imported was fairly traded.
Traidcraft is helping beekeepers in Africa
and Latin America build better futures
for themselves and their communities.
By holding a Big Brew you’ll be
supporting this valuable work – and
creating a buzz around fair trade!
